Is it running stable? I think I had upgraded one of crest/kullervo already but the machine was becoming unresponsive after some hours/days. Not something to return to NMMN.
Unresponsive with regards to network, or totally dead?Network might suffer from IRQ watchdog madness which can be worked around by the right kernel option (noirqdebug works for my softirq NE2000 hack).
It would be nice to collect info like this (hardware/driver status, usable monitors, installation hints...) in the wiki. I am not using m68k hardware often enough, so I always start from scratch. Next time I should add some notes to the wiki.Good idea. Usually I blog about those kind of things because I forget easily as well, but can remember that I blogged about an issue.Yes, that is good, reminds me to find some time for this. But having step-by-step instructions ok a wiki could be even more useful. I stopped using AmigaOS some time ago so I am forgetting basic things. I prefer to setup the Amiga by placing the HDD in a PC and do things from there. With the Mac and Atari it is even worse, as I have never really used that myself. Convincing the Atari to boot from harddisk will always remain a mystery to me.
And you cannot even plug the IDE disk into a PC :-)
Four or more ahead of me :-) Good luck with the nightmare that is wanna-build.BTW: I'm right now in the progress of trying to setup a buildd chroot. Once done, I try to make a tarball out of it that can be used by the other machines as well. Next step would then be to check if buildd infrastructure is working properly (quinn-diff, wanna-build, sbuild, etc)...You are at least three steps ahead of me...
