Hi Ralf, the arbitrary change of lasat machine numbers in revision 1.70 of bootinfo.h means the lasat machines don't get very far in the boot process. I use this number as an index into several arrays to dynamically set up the minor hardware differences between the two machines, it being off by one causes a horrible crash the first time one of the values is used. Was there a good reason for the change or can you apply the following patch to allow these systems to boot...? /Brian Index: include/asm-mips/bootinfo.h =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/linux/include/asm-mips/bootinfo.h,v retrieving revision 1.73 diff -u -r1.73 bootinfo.h --- include/asm-mips/bootinfo.h 15 Mar 2004 07:55:26 -0000 1.73 +++ include/asm-mips/bootinfo.h 6 Apr 2004 19:46:13 -0000 @@ -200,8 +200,8 @@ * Valid machtype for group LASAT */ #define MACH_GROUP_LASAT 21 -#define MACH_LASAT_100 1 /* Masquerade II/SP100/SP50/SP25 */ -#define MACH_LASAT_200 2 /* Masquerade PRO/SP200 */ +#define MACH_LASAT_100 0 /* Masquerade II/SP100/SP50/SP25 */ +#define MACH_LASAT_200 1 /* Masquerade PRO/SP200 */ /* * Valid machtype for group TITAN
