Re: 2.2.15 compiles fails on mac m68k



Excuse my ignorance. I'm not too clear on what you mean by the "kernel." All
I know is that when I try to install the base system on my Mac IIci (68030,
FPU, MMU) using the files from the Potato directory, the screen locks up
right after the Penguin Colors flash on the screen. I never arrive to the
point where it asks me what keyboard I have on my system. The "stable"
installaation files arrive to this point with no hassle. What has changed in
the Potato installation files that is locking up the screen?
