here a new release:
http://www.ewb.it/~acrux/crux-ppc-2.4pre8-pmac32.iso (324335616)
http://www.ewb.it/~acrux/crux-ppc-2.4pre8-pmac32.iso.md5 (62)
it is a generic pmac32 and pegasos2 (radeonfb enabled and without DTS fw patch) bootkernel (2.6.23.9)
| Code: |
on Genesi Pegasos2:
> boot cd boot/zImage-Pegasos2 root=/dev/hdc
|
known issue:
| Code: |
1) xorg-1.4.0 wrapper doesn't find videocards on PCI bus (PCI domain broken on powerpc arch - affected machines are PegasosII and, perhaps, Pegasos too)
2) the CRUX PPC handbook here included is too old (it's yet from 2.2 release)
|
the next-coming release 'll include EFIKA and Sam440ep bootkernel too.

Nice work Folks!
Have you thought about putting together a page like this?
We could include CruxPPC in the official list of options.
R&B :)

yeah, it 'd be great. We are just working to release our 2.4 release but we must delay RC1 release 'cause our server (where we are going to create new git server) it's down. :/
After that we are happy to talk about this new opportunity.

Cd drive is connected to Efika through usb adapter.
For installation Crux I write the following:
boot cd /boot/zImage-Efika root=/dev/sr0
and the Installer does not find drive.
Thus, when installing Crux from hdd, the installer has perfectly found drive as sr0 device.

I believe it's rootdelay=10 and not bootdelay... but maybe either will work...
Anyway Cjg is in the team too! :wink:
