Hi Stephane,
I downloaded your new kernel today and it built just fine, but it
doesn't boot. Your changes are probably not related to the problem I'm
seeing... it's probably something related to 2.6.26 itself. I'm posting
in hopes that you might have seen this behavior already and know what to
do. What I'm seeing on the console during boot-up of the 2.6.26-rc1
kernel is this:
boot:
Please wait, loading kernel...
Elf64 kernel loaded...

Any ideas? The logs starts diverging after "instantiating rtas at ..."
The HAL and smartd daemons are not started.
I'll ask around here too, of course, but I'm hoping you've been through
this recently.
Thanks for your consideration,
