...I have been able to upload the 2.1.99 kernel source (thanks Harald!)
and to compile it with gcc 2.7.2 and binutils 2.8.1 (thanks Michael!),
however the output I get is a little different:
Ramdisk driver initialized : 16 ramdisks of 4096K size
...then silence!! So the ramdisk code doesn't seem to detect a valid
ramdisk image, though it doesn't seem to complain either.
Has anyone got a suggestion? I will try a make clean and see if that
helps...
Regards,
Paul (happily hacking his DECstation once more!)
