I've tried the kernels from the kernel packages for 2.2.1 and 2.2.9 and tried compiling my own 2.2.9 and 2.2.10 kernels to boot a Umax APUS powerpc clone, to no avail. The only kernel it wants to run is the 2.1.24 kernel on Paul McKerras's ancient installer disk. Either quik or OF fails with the message 'no active package' after failing even to start the kernel. Does anyone have any ideas where I might be going wrong? Cheers, Mk
