Hi FOlks,
I have couple of questions on ramdisk operation.
1. How can i see the contents of a ramdisk? I
downloaded one from denx and i want to see what is in
there?
2. In ${LINUX_ROOT}/init/main.c -> init(), after
prepare_namespace (which basically does the inintrd
mount), open syscall on '/dev
Hi!
I'm desperately looking for cross compile debian packages for developing
PowerPC apps on Linux/x86. They used to be at www.emdebian.org, but I can
only find the C/C++ compilers and headers there. Anybody know where I can
find the libc6-dev-powerpc, etc. packages?

request_8xxirq is not yet gone in 2.5, but it will be in 2.4 very shortly

Dear Jerry and Wolfgang,
Thank you for your reply.
I have changed the kernel clock rate to 1000 (/include/asm-ppc/param.h,
#define HZ 1000). It helped.
We reply in about 2mSec and we are within the 4mSec timeout.
As we are new to Linux, we imigrated from windows :), it took us some time.

Hi all,
You will find a framebuffer driver for the LynxEM chipset in the ELinOS
distribution from SYSGO (www.elinos.com), name drivers/video/smiLynx.c
I was able to run text mode console, Qt/Embedded and X-Windows on top of this
driver. However, this driver does not initialize videomode. It re

Hi
I'm in the process of porting my board based on a MPC850
from 2.4 to 2.5 and it appears that request_8xxirq is gone.
There was some previous discussion about this subject and
some patches were presented by Tom. Apparently there were
some objections and are not in the kernel.
Is it safe to us

Prakash,
It seems that your kernel didn't get any information about where is your
init ramdisk.
Which boot loader do you use ? On which board ?
In the kernel sources, I guess your initrd_start is set to NULL, so you
have to verify in the platform_init() function (usually found in
arch/ppc

There is lynxfb.c in the linuxppc_2_4_devel tree

Hi Eli,
Yes, you can leave HZ at 1000 if that works for you. HZ is a tradeoff
between switching tasks more rapidly (as you noticed, it can help response
time) and overhead of handling a high frequency interrupt (which can hurt
response time :-).
I am guessing that you have two or more tasks tha
