No booting
by Adam Talbot 22 Dec '04

22 Dec '04

OK, Guys... I am stuck on this one. I have a Shuttle motherboard FV24 running a Via vt8604 chipset. I have the system booting linux and have been tring to install linuxbios. I can never get any output from the com port. I have console redirect running in grub, so I no that part is running and good test point. My current config is just the epia config with an updated irq_tables.c. I make the linuxbios.rom, clean compile, no errors. I flash the system I get nothing. No boot, no output from console, nothing.... What am I missing? http://www.dslwebserver.com/main/fr_index.html?/main/shuttle-sv24-2.html -Adam Talbot

>You can only use getpir if you have a working bios. Otherwise you >Will get junk. Oh..i got it. I do have a working bios. Thank God. And I generated the irq_tables.c using getpir. It still doesn't help. One thing I did notice, it starts getting slow after mounting file system. gin
