The configurations I have are for 2600 with a PMC graphics board, remove
CONFIG_VT from the setup and it will use a serial console.

BTW use PrePboot for these boards (CONFIG_PREPBOOT) since it gives a nicer
PCI layout to access the VMEbus...

Please use the patches mvme2600.*.bz2...
I have tested the patches but the new kernel don't see the scsi device...so
I can't try it anyway !

My systems work with an SCSI disk (the basic 2600 NCR53c825).
Did you try to directly boot one of the images I have on my ftp site ?

(If it works, you've got a configuration problem.)

Yes, I have tested your kernel, but there is a message ( PC keyb error... or
something like this) wich lock the kernel during the boot ! It's probably
due to the Virtual Terminal support in the kernel !
I always use the "console=ttyS0,9600" kernel option.

In short :

- I can't use your kernel because of the PC_key error !
- I can't patch & build a new kernel because this new kernel don't see my
SCSI PMC !

What can I do ?
