[parisc-linux] exec_kernel help

[Ryan Bradetich]

Hello hackers,

I've been struggling with this for the last couple of days, and I'm
stuck.  I can build a bootable image, but I can not get it to transfer
control to the kernel.  (I'm working on a C200+ which is a PA-8200
(PA-RISC 2.0) as Grant pointed out earlier).  I know the first targeted
build is for the PA 1.1, but I am willing and would like to get the
kernel working on the 2.0 also.

Here is the output on the console (I'm typing this in by hand)

It hangs there and I have to reboot to continue.
I am booting using rbootd/tftpd if that makes any difference.

Any help/pointers would be appreciated :)

Thanks,
