installing 2.2r3 on a E420R & memory issues
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 When trying to do a 'boot cdrom s install' on a 420R w/ 4x450 & 4GB RAM, it's giving me a memory mapping error, suggesting i use the option 'mem=xxxM'. Problem is I can't figure out how to use it. I've tried: boot cdrom s mem=4096M install boot cdrom s install mem=4096M and I still get the memory mapping error. Does anyone know the proper syntax/format? Thanks. - -- Aaron D.

This sounds an awful lot like the problems I am having with tulip on my g4, so it may not be an X1 issue. I had to back down to a version from around 2.4.[34]. Maybe you could try copying the tulip directory from that kernel version to 2.4.7, apply your patch and see how that works?

I strongly suggest following vger CVS until the issues are worked out. The romvec fix is in there, and the other fixes will show there before anywhere else. You'll know it's fixed once I upload 2.4.x sparc32 kernels to Debian :) -- ---===-=-==-=---==-=-- / Ben Collins -- ...on that fantastic voyage... -- Debian GNU/Linux \ ` [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ' `---=--===-=-=-=-===-==---=--=---'

It would be nice if one can disable ECN by an option file, such as the file /etc/network/options Can this be implemented ?
