Hi Adrian,

Wouldn't that mean that you can't use a generic Alpha kernel on the Jensen anymore? CONFIG_ALPHA_JENSEN is only set if you specifically select the Jensen as target, not when you build a generic kernel. That would be a step back in my opinion, as the Debian generic kernel from debian-ports did as least boot up on real hardware and the serial console worked just fine [granted, the EISA cards were not detected, even after support for it got enabled, but that's another case of worms].If you could figure out what kernel option we might be missing for the Jensen machine to get EISA working, please let me know. I only have newer Alphas myself, so I am relying on your debugging help here.
I know, I know, have been completely absorbed in real-live matters lately, my apologies, but I will dig into that between xmas and new year, promise, CU, Uli -- Dipl. Inf.
