Sun SS1000 SMP booting problem
I have an old SS1000 here and it runs fine with a uniprocessor
kernel. I've tried several.
But when I try any SMP kernel it fails. I've tried cross-compiled,
Debian main packages, locally compiled etc...
What happens? Well here:
SPARCserver 1000E, No Keyboard
ROM Rev. 2.31, 512 MB memory installed, Serial #8264719.
Ethernet address 8:0:20:7e:1c:f, Host ID: 807e1c0f.
Type help for more information
<#0> ok boot
SILO
boot: /notwork
Uncompressing image...

Watchdog Reset
<#0> ok
notwork is one of the kernels I'm trying.
Any idea what this is - why - and how to get around it?
As you can see it's OpenBoot 2.31 - There are currently
2x85MHz processors in there - but I've changed the system
board, the processors and the memory. (I have 4 full
system boards... which I'd like to use :O)
Oh I'm running unstable - not that makes a jot of difference
since the kernel doesn't even fully uncompress.
Please help me!!!
