Re: specific to Hartmut Kuptein
I just obtained the latest 2.2.12 kernel images from
ftp://ftp.ppc.kernel.org/pub/linuxppc/kernel-images/v2.2.12-990820/
and tried both prep and chrp on this machine. They both had the same
net result (hung the machine on what appears as a graphics error, but
don't really know). However, the prep diskette seemed to be read by
the boot-up process for a much longer period of time which may imply
that it is the correct machine type. Just what does a chrp boot image
on the AIX CD really mean anyway?
