Hello Stefan, what's wrong with the old falcon IDE driver? pata_falcon should not be necessary, and may even be detrimental to performance (it doesn't use interrupts, rather it polls for completion of ATA commands).
Probably nothing wrong with it, but with the kernel from the netinstall iso no IDE was detected at all. A module was needed to be loaded and pata_falcon was tried at first, and was successful. After the installer installed to /dev/sda3 it made no sense to modprobe falconide that would create /dev/hda nodes.
The EtherNAT will remember the MAC address across reboots, but some hack to set a fixed address after module load might be in order. My EtherNAT is toast so I can't test that myself.
Perhaps i can take a look at your EtherNAT if you attend to m68k meetup. i revived a broken EtherNAT by simply reprogramming the FPGA.
The console keyboard map is for american layout: @ is on shift-2, ~ is on shift-~, | is on shift-#, [ is on ü, ] is on + (curly brackets on shift with same keys) with my german layout keyboard. No idea why I used the american layout, I'm sure I had taken down the german raw keycodes at some stage when rewriting the keyboard driver.
i choosed german keyboard at D-I setup and shift-2 is ", shift-~ is ° shift-# is ' ...
If these keys don't work for you, try without loading a key map.
will try to figure that out.
xserver needs support for the Atari pixel format (interleaved planes). Shouldn't be too hard to do, but Xorg code probably isn't for the faint of heart (I've certainly had enough to last me a lifetime).
so, remove Xorg and install old XFree86? hmm. my supervidel supports 8-bit chunky as well as 16 bit (compatible to the Falcon 320x200 "truecolor". we could also give Xorg what it needs to be happy. Greetings, Stefan
