Hello, I just installed Debian GNU/Linux 3.0 (testing pre-release) for PPC on a G3 400MHz 2000 (NewWorld) Apple "Pismo" Powerbook. Everything was fine upon install, I rebooted successfully several times. Then I wanted to upgrade from the provided 2.2.19-pmac kernel to a 2.4.16 kernel, so I recompiled, and rebooted. This time around, i can't boot. This is the error:
Welcome to yaboot version 1.3.6 Enter "help" to get some basic usage information boot: Linux Please wait, loading kernel... Elf32 kernel loaded... opening display /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ATY,[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ATY,RageM3pA... ok copying OF device tree...done Calling quiesce ... returning 01400000 from prom_init _ Then after 20 or so seconds, it reboots and gives me the same message. I'm able to access the MacOS 9 partition (if I hold the alt/option key on reboot), but I'm not interested in that side... Any ideas as to what's going on? Or how I can resolve this? I tried the idea of an earlier post of entering: hd:11,/vmlinux but I get the same error. Please help!!!! To see what kernel options I used for the recompilation, and the general methodology, please refer to the following document: http://www.dialectique.org/linux-dev/debian-kernel-compilation.html thanks in advance, -r.
