Christian,
yup. CONFIG_SCSI_ZORRO7XX is enabled, will this be the new driver?
No, that's a different chipset, not ESP.
ok
As far as I remember, the config is combined of a generic config, an m68k
config, and an amiga config. Each file set only part of the total config,
And you can't patch the generic config? Not that I'd want to submit
that as a patch against the kernel source, of course.
yes, probably. But it is not really defined anywhere... how does this
Makefile work?
In drivers/hid/Makefile there is a line:
obj-$(CONFIG_HID_MICROSOFT) += hid-microsoft.o
This depends on HID_USB, we don't have USB on Amiga so I add:
# CONFIG_USB_HID is not set
to config.amiga, but then the build fails here, just as when I edit the
subarches that should be built:
debian/bin/gencontrol.py

Maybe that is the real problem I am facing. And I always thought python
produces usable error messages...
probably so that the kernels across all arches support more of less the same
features. Thats a good idea, but I think many drivers are useless for the
buildds, by removing them the kernel can fit into memory again, just barely.
That sort of stuff should be built as modules anyway.
Yes, it is built as a module, but the build still fails. I removed some
video and network drivers, some filesystems which we do not use on the
buildds, but the kernel size was just reduced by a little bit. So in the
long run, maybe we do have to fix amiboot so that we can still use the full
memory?
