[parisc-linux] kernel compile

[Aaron St. Pierre]

Joel, 
	I figured so, but thought I should note it since well I am running
	out of answers ;) 

	Here is the setup right now: I have a laptop running minicom
	connected to the J2240 through the serial port. I can see the init
	codes and tests happening through the serial console, so to answer
	your question :) yes I do boot from a serial console... 

	As far as the cdrom, it is not ide, it is scsi, and it seems to work 
	fine /dev/cdrom --> sr0. I inserted a cdrom (just to test) and
	mounted iso9660 without problems. 

	I am going to remove ide stuff from the kernel after I test with
	what grant suggested. 

	Just for the sake of documentation I will add compile logs as script
	files for the next builds. They will be on that page as I complete
	them. 

	Fun day of pancake making ahead :)
