btw, there are bugs with it. Starting several processes with init or even telnetd will expose the bug.David and I haven't been able to reproduce this on the Walnut or the EP405. What sort of machine are you using, what processor, how much RAM, and what distro are you using? Paul.I run MVL (of course) on a walnut with 32MB of RAM. What is your environment? btw, MVL uses soft-float in glibc not floating point emulation in the kernel.
I've tried it both on a Walnut (PVR 401100c4) with 128MB of RAM, root filesystem on an IDE disk attached to a Promis PCI IDE controller and on an EP405PC board (PVR 40110145) with 64MB of RAM with NFS root. In both cases userland is Debian/sid running with kernel math emulation. -- David Gibson | For every complex problem there is a david@gibson.dropbear.id.au | solution which is simple, neat and | wrong. -- H.L.
