Hello, I had been trying to get the linux kernel 2.4.3 on our latest mips core which is mips32 ISA complient. Finally I was able to boot the kernel. Also /bin/sh executes but gives the following message and a prompt. Everything freezes thereafter. sh: can't access tty; Job control turned off # I dont know if its a problem with the serial driver or the keyboard driver. I'm using the ttyS0 as the console and I think its working fine. I dont know how to check that the keyboard is working fine. Any tips ?? Thanks in advance. regards, Balaji
