I've tested each new version but without success. Saw "Loading Linux..." and after that, a blank screen, even sysrq was non-working, even Serial Console didn't give me _any_ output. I was really afraid, since I was not able to find that problem, that future 2.5.xx kernels won't boot for me also, BUT fortunately v2.5.34 boots again for me :-) and is working fine so far and I am really impressed how v2.5 goes ahead :-) Therefor I decided to make a really small patch available for vanilla v2.5.34 kernel which includes the following: o 2.5.34-mm1 (Andrew Morton) o aty128 Framebuffer fixes (Paul Mackerras) o ftape damage fix (Mikael Pettersson) o devfs fix (Alexander Viro) o do_syslog__down_try lock lockup (Ingo Molnar) o floppy driver init/exit fixes (Mikael Pettersson) o pcibios_fixup_irqs-static (Adam J. Richter) o some tuning (me) - OPEN_MAX 1024 - NR_FILE 65536 - NR_RESERVED_FILES 128 - TCP_KEEPALIVE_TIME (5*60*HZ) - int sysctl_local_port_range[2] = { 1024, 9999 }; o ext3 version information fix (me) o ALSA v0.9.0rc3 (ALSA Team) o XFS + KDB (2.5.33-20020908-cvs) (SGI) I hope you need this a bit and find it usefull as I do.
