I'm sorry to say so, but apparently it *is* possible. uname -r
gives
me a 2.4.xxxxx kernel as response. I did do an install of 3.0r4 and
*then* a dist-upgrade to 4.0rx, perhaps that is the reason.
It is. AFAICT, parisc will not replace the kernel in any sort of
upgrade.
You have to modify palo.conf by hand to point at the new kernel and
run "palo" manually.
Ahhhh okay, I understand :) Well, the fact that I have to modify
the file.
But that would mean that there should already be a new kernel
somewhere on
the /boot partition?! Which is just not (yet) included in the conf
file?
yes, there should be - assuming /boot was created and mounted
properly.
If not, hunt for the right linux-image (32-bit UP) and install it.
The /boot has been created and is mounted, but I thought I made it
100mb and it's in fact 42mb, so I guess it's too small, because there
is no 2.6.xx kernel :(
BTW, for now, do not use 2.6.18 SMP kernels. I believe fixes went
into
2.6.22 that help make parisc SMP stable again.
Would SMP kernels be even installed on a A180C, which is not a
multi-processing box?!
probably not. But this is going to a mailing list...warning is for
others too.
Makes sense :)
My sources.list now is:
debian1:/etc/apt# more sources.list
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 r0 _Etch_ - Official hppa DVD
Binary-3
20070407-
19:19]/ unstable contrib main
Ok. I just find it odd that "unstable" is used for etch DVD builds.
Normally I would expect to see "stable" or "testing" (for
prerelease) there.
hth,
grant
I can't answer that one, I jsut state was is said in the sources.list.
I also tried to add 2 SCSI cards, a Adaptec 29160 and a Compaq
(Adapted 3960D) with a Seagate 18Gb Atlas V (wide) drive, but here I
see the same as with the IDE/SATA controler, the card is seen but not
the drive :( I was hoping I could use this drive since it's newer,
and wide drives are more available to me than the standard drives
inside the box. Any ideas?
With kind regards,
Angelo
