A "Me too": on StarMax (pmac 4400 clone, 603e-160), 2.2.14 doesn't even start
atyfb (onboard Mach64) or offb (unsupported Cirrus Logic MacPicasso). Quik
(2.0-2) segfaults on me, corrupting my boot blocks, with or without 2.2.14 in
quik.conf, but booting vmlinux.coff on the floppy crashes too with the OF error
message below. 2.2.15pre1 from floppy fails in exactly the same way.
DEFAULT CATCH!, code=FFF00600 at %SRR: 003FFEC8 %SRR1: 00003040
One other question: I'm getting supremely slow IDE performance (< 1 MB/s) on a
pretty nice drive with 2.2.13. Should I be using different DMA kernel config
options from the ones below, or is pmac IDE just that bad?

To wander still further from the original question, I just solved my buttons
problem: the kernel line should be adb_buttons=58:52 not 58,52. This puts the
center and right buttons on the left and right alt/option keys respectively.
