Hi All,

May be its a FAQ, I tried to browse the mailing list archive but didn't find
anything.

I got te very last palinux source, did the various method (oldconfig,
menuconfig), then make dep and make vlinux.

When I reboot the latest build kernel on my C180 it got up to

........
Segment 0 load 00100000 size 1819636 mediaptr 0x1000
Segment 1 load 002be000 size 264864 mediaptr 0x1be000
Segment 2 load 00300000 size 401768 mediaptr 0x1ff000
Segment 3 load 00364000 size 8192 mediaptr 0x262000
Segment 4 load 00368000 size 32768 mediaptr 0x264000
Segment 5 load 003900b0 size 92624 mediaptr 0x26c0b0
Branching to kernel entry point 0x00100258.  If this is the last
message you see, you may need to switch your console.  This is
a common symptom -- search the FAQ and mailing list at parisc-linux.org


Then it hang there for about 15 minutes (or was it 30 didn't noted), then it
proceed successfully

Linux version 2.4.19-pa21 (phi@iws1pb02) (gcc version 3.0.4) #3 Mon Oct 7
11:44:
59 CEST 2002
FP[0] enabled: Rev 0 Model 14
The 32-bit Kernel has started...
......



When I reboot again but ask PALO to use vmlinux.prev (my prev kernel don't
know how to make another one likethis one) the micro hang is less than a
minute.

Is there something I should do to get booted faster?

Thanx in advance,
Phi
