- I have had exactly the same problem. My configuration:
-
- A2500/30, 1MB Chip, 4MB Fast, and a Fujitsu M2624SA at id 0 with bsd
- on it.
-
- The problem apparently has something to do with enabling the MMU. But
- I don't know what. I originally thought there was some problem with
- the new ZORROII memory map on A2000 class machines. That does not
- appear to be the problem. Then I thought that there was some problem
- copying the 900+KB kernels in and out of Chip RAM, so I customized the
- kernel down by ~100K. That didn't work either.
-
- Now for theory #3: Has anyone sucessfully booted a kernel later than
- #390 on a machine with 4MB or less of *contiguous* fast RAM?
