Thanks for your help, but I've gotten closer with the 2.6.32.19-163 kernel. It gets past the "Attached SCSI disk" but hangs here: scsi target0:0:1: FAST-80 WIDE SCSI 160.0 MB/s DT (12.5 ns, offset 31) scsi target0:0:1: Ending Domain Validation sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0 sd 0:0:1:0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0 sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 71132959 512-byte logical blocks: (36.4 GB/33.9 GiB) sd 0:0:1:0: [sdb] 71132959 512-byte logical blocks: (36.4 GB/33.9 GiB) sd 0:0:1:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off sd 0:0:1:0: [sdb] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, supports DPO and F UA sdb: sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Write Protect is off sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, supports DPO and F UA sdb3 sd 0:0:1:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI disk sda: sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4 sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI disk kjournald starting.

I had devil of a time getting anything working on a Bullfrog which had a XVR-100. It took me weeks to get a kernel that would work (boot to a prompt). According to not-so-clear notes I took at the time, some of the items that had a lot of effect (good or bad) were the I2C settings (had to be off), and SERIO_18042 (had to be off). I'm attaching my config file for the kernel. Don't know if this will help or not, but it's what I am now able to use for both the Bullfrogs and other sparcs as well. This is for 2.6.33, so I don't know how relevent it is to FC-14. I can provide the kernel for you as well, if that will help. T. Rowe Price (including T.
