I did not see your email on the sparclinux@vger.kernel.org list-- did I miss it? That is the best forum for SPARC32 Linux kernel issues. > Why Linux simply halt the machine??? is there any specific reason?? > How can I override the problem?? Check <linux>/arch/sparc/kernel/idprom.c and remove the prom_halt() calls in idprom_init and display_system_type. I can't say if this will give you a working system but it is a good place to start. As well, you may need to provide fallback values for those retrieved from the PROM. > I don't think I can replace the EPROM with a new one (are still > available?)...
