If anyone has a working sparc32 kernel config that works on a sparc32

Tom,

	Jurij,

The 2.6.18 kernel (it is actually 2.6.18.5 plus some patches) we currently have in Debian works fine on my SS20. You can find the config, kernel, and matching initrd at

http://www.wooyd.org/sparc/

I have tried the 2.6.18 official tree. ESP works fine, but due to a bug in VM, SMP kernel is not stable. I obtain some Oopses with syscall_too_hard in read_pipe. For example, it is imposible to untar kernel tree from its tar.bz2 file. I have tried both 2.6.19 and 2.6.19.1. With these kernels, I cannot obtain any syscall_too_hard error nor Oopses, but :

1/ sunlance is totaly broken (sunhme works fine). I suspect a bug due to a build with gcc-4.1, but I don't have time enough (today, but I shall try tomorrow ;-) ) to build gcc-4.0 and rebuild the current kernel; 2/ I have seen a deadlock (without any Oops, tar xvfj linux-2.6.20-rc3.tar.bz2 remains in D state !).

The 2.6.20-rc3 hangs after floppy controler initialization (but I have built this kernel with gcc-4.1).

	Regards,

	JKB
