Hi, I am trying to resurrect my amiga and I am looking for a CD to install off. All CDs I have here have some problems, like missing info files, no uncompressed or missing kernels or a too small ramdisk_size as boot parameter. I just found Stephens daily build, but there is no CD image, do I have to download everything and build it myself?
Has anybody tried to install lenny yet? The amiga bootargs use: ramdisk_size=9000, previously we used 13000, but both seem to be too small, even 64000 gave me attempt to access beyond end of device. If this size is in kbyte, I can not use much larger values, or would it help to uncompress the initrd also? Next question, does anybody else have a lyra keyboard adapter? My Amiga keyboards are no fun to type on, so I tried again to use a PS/2 keyboard with the lyra adapter. It works fine most of the time in AmigaOS (the floppy with the 060 libraries and patches has a problem, but my custom made install3.1 floppy, which has this library installed, works fine, also once it is installed, it seems to work with no problems). However, in Linux, I never got it to work, some years ago I had a look at the kernel, but did not get very far. With the 2.6.18 kernel, I get this message whenever I type a key, and no keypress is ever recognized: amikeyb: unknown keyboard communication code 0xff With 2.6.24, I get a slightly different message, but the keyboard does not work either. Any clues? Any patches I could test? I guess I can boot a kernel without having linux installed, but a full install (or a hint how to install the AOS drivers for the Aridadne2, the installation from the floppies fails) would make transfering kernel files easier.
