Hi all,

I read this thread about booting a PowerStack with newer kernels. 
Motivated by this, I tried to compile a 2.6.10 kernel on my machine (with 
sym53c825a onboard). Sadly, the scsi controller always timeouts during 
initialisation. I 

I also have some strange issues with network support using the standard debian
2.6.8 kernel. ifconfig upping the decchip ethernet on the powerstack freezes
the kernel, and i hear reports of problems on IBM PReP hardware too with not
working ethernet, altough there is no freeze.

Any idea on this ? 

Does it contain the IRQ patch? Where does it boot from SCSI or net? What
PCI-Devices are installed?

Probably not, just the standard debian kernel, i donÃ't remember any irq
patches, but there where a bunch of patches from leighbb. it is done

The patch is the one that is included in 2.6.10 which is mentioned above
and this thread already has somewhere in the beginning. I attached it
below.
I haven't had the time yet to test the 2.6.10 kernel. Maybe there is
another problem now ...

netbooting, and the only pci device installed is the cirruss logic graphic
card.

If you use the standard debian kernel - ok, it doesn't work because of
wrong IRQs on the PowerstackII (Utah).


BTW: The onboard Winbond IDE chip works as well although no connector is
provided. You only need a little bit of soldering and adjusting the IRQ
of Slot 1 from 0 to 4. :-)
