supported systems running on 2.6 ?
Hi,
are there already MIPS systems running on 2.6.0 ? If so, which ones ? I'm currently porting a VR41xx based configuration from 2.4.24 to 2.6.0: boot sequence seems to be OK, but the init process doesn't come up (it looks like its not properly laid out in memory, thus continuously generating exceptions (do_signal()) ...). Is it too soon to expect it to work ?

Which Vr41xx's configuration did you use?

None of the default ones in the tree, it's not a board listed in the configs (the board has a VR4120A and a VR4131 cpu). I'm currently using a configuration with CONFIG_EMBEDDED_RAMDISK set and CONFIG_MACH_VR41XX.
Is there a working config with a VR41xx on 2.6.0 ? It would surprise me since I had to do some fixes for the VR41xx series (for some I already sent a patch) which seem to indicate the VR41xx specifics have not yet been actively looked at for 2.6.0 (although I know you have been submitting patches for the Vr41xx).

About 2.6 of linux-mips, development progressed quickly several of these months.
Therefore, we are not completing Vr41xx about 2.6.

Are you trying 2.6.0 from linux-mips.org CVS?
If so, make sure it is no earlier then from yesterday. There was non-CPU specific bug that was just fixed.
For reference: I have R212K-based SGI O2 running almost stable with 2.6.0. R5K O2's also boot, but show random segfaults and oopses, but I still do not know what exactly is the reason for that.
