Cool, thanks for testing. > See the dmesg at http://www.luminet.net/~lancetag/dmesg-2.2.25. > > I have observed that mounting affs partitions is a bit different.

I don't think this is related to the kernel.

According to the Linux-M68k FAQ (which > is back online now, btw) this is a supported configuration. I assume the FAQ is pretty outdated. IIRC you should avoid Zorro II mem. When I activate the 8MB I have on my GVP Series II SCSI card, the amiga crawls, it takes about half an hour just to boot! So I have to live with the 128MB on the B2060 ;-) BTW I have a couple of spare 8MB modules from the Quadra (FPM I assume), and somewhere I should have 8MB EDO lying around, which worked nicely in the Amiga. I am willing so swap against _any_ working video card for the amiga. Or maybe somebody can repair my CV64-3D? Christian
