I have checked out the latest 2.4 kernel sources and tried to run it on my Malta board with an IDE disk, but fsck fails.
EPC points at __wake_up, which is called from __alloc_pages.

Has anyone encountered a similar problem ?

/dev/hda1 was not cleanly unmounted, check forced.

The problem turned out to be a compiler/binutils bug.

I'm using ftp://oss.sgi.com/pub/linux/mips/crossdev/i386-linux/mipsel-linux/binutils-mipsel-linux-2.9.5-3.i386.rpm and
ftp://oss.sgi.com/pub/linux/mips/crossdev/i386-linux/mipsel-linux/egcs-mipsel-linux-1.1.2-4.i386.rpm
, which seems to be the latest on the SGI FTP server.

What are the recommended toolchain ?

I won't use them myself. They are known to be broken.

What are the recommended toolchain ?

The toolchain from my RedHat 7.1 mips port is in reasonably good shape.

Don't use these for building userspace apps.

Exactly the binaries which I put on oss. I know that in the meantime various problems with them have shown up so I'm waiting for the next official binutils release to replace them.

Hrm... Looks like I'm getting bitten by this bug also.

I'm using H.J.'s toolchain RPMs for building the userspace applications, but the same tools as Carsten for building the kernel. I guess that combination doesn't work, either.

Unfortunately, the RPMs that H.J. has put on oss.sgi.com won't install on my system -- wrong version of RedHat. And I don't see the source to his toolchain RPMs, so I can't rebuild it myself for the local libraries.

Any suggestions on what the best approach is?

As an aside, it looks like you can't rebuild this from source without gettext installed, but that isn't a pre-req given in the spec file.

It looks like there is code to detect gettext and substitute a local copy if it's not available, but that code doesn't seem to work right.

There are many things left out, like gcc, binutils, glibc-devel, ..... I don't like to list all of them. It should be no different to bootstrap gcc.
