[parisc-linux] Problem with FS of ESIEE on 720 !

[marteau]

Hi Christoph and PA-RISCers !                                         
                                                                      
>I have tried the current and the last ESIEE file system,             
>but I have problems with both. I used my own kernel,                 
The kernels you will find are designed for 712 but it seems to work   
many others boxes!                                                    
vmlinux.mou is a kernel that integrate the low level mouse driver!    
(you can check via /proc/interrupts)                                  
                                                                      
>running with the palinux-0.5, but the ESIEE always hangs.            
>If I do not change the /dev/console, I get the warning...            
>(of course, I have not compiled in the STI). So tried                
>to set the `mknod console c 5 1' and I also tried the

I read what Matthew wrote. We goona look at it in order to be         
automatic                                                             
                                                                      
>gives no welcome message (version, etc...) and the machine           
>hangs !                                                              
Our inittab file is specific for dual screen (if you use STI console  
and Serial terminal!)                                                 
I do not know how it reacts if the kernel expect a console with the   
serail port :( Any idea?

You can but once init is launched the dmesg is less usefull.          
                                                                      
>What's the topic with the TERM variable ??                           
TERM=LINUX is not operational                                         
TERM=vt100 or pcansi are working!                                     
                                                                      
>Have I set it to a special value ???                                 
>Can that be the reason ???                                           
Don't think so
