30 years from
Hi Joël,
I've got an SS20 with dual hypersparc. Kernels post 2.6.21 boot okay,
run in general, but a 'make -j 3' build of the kernel aborts a couple of
times with a bus error or similar vague errors.
I'd be interested in a V8 repository.

audioctl was only used by the OSS implementation. All drivers have been

One of the feedbacks was that 'modprobe -a -l' is depreciated and

the oportunity to replace all use of this with a find equivalent.

Is there a reason why this strip isn't done by the normal (upstream)

It's fairly difficult (but not impossible) to get a bootable kernel

I'd have to agree with Hendrik here. You know what module to load,

Remove some duplicated items due to the inclusion of the general
drivers/Kconfig file. These are now taken from drivers/char/Kconfig,
and can be turned off there as well (which is desirable sometimes).

On sparc32 I have a CONFIG_SERIAL_CONSOLE set. Seems suspicious to me
you don't have that.
My gut feeling is that the bash issue is related to some virtual
