[parisc-linux] Re: Kernel faults on boot

[Simeon Walker]

Hi,
  I have just installed the from 0.9 ISO to a 712/80 (using the
sti kernel) and had the same problem. Modify the palo params and 
going into run level 1 works. I can then run all the services that
would have started at run level 2, it's actually the getty's
started by init that cause the crash.

I thought I'd try and compile my own kernel to see if that
had the same problem but have been unable to do so. First
I tried the apt-get'able kernel source and then I tried the
cvs version with the same problem. The error is:
   make: hppa-linux-gcc: Command not found
Is this because the kernel sources assume I'm cross compiling
whereas I'm actually trying to compile on the target machine
or am I missing some package? I've compiled kernels on 
debian x86 machines so I know what's usually required.

Any advice on either of these issues is appreciated

Regards,
Simeon
