- You would not happen to have ram attached to the GVP board? Linux
- doesn't like mixing up 32-bit and 16-bit memory in ZorroIII
- computers.
-
- What version of the kernel did you try? The pre-compiled pl8 kernel
- contains a bug that makes it crash on Amiga (it probes for an Atari
- Ethernet board), so either try pl7 or wait for pl9 which should be
- released real soon now.
-
- If you think you came across a bug in the kernel you could join the
- kernel mailinglist, mail majordomo@phil.uni-sb.de with the line
- 'subscribe linux-m68k' and post to linux-m68k@phil.uni-sb.de
