Hi all,

after a few months forgetting about elks, I'm trying to install it again.
I've got two questions:

1) The latest version available in the web page is 0.1.1, but this
mailing list speaks of other newer versions... aren't hey packtized?

2) Version 0.1.1 gives me the next error:

After a few months forgetting about elks, I'm trying to install it again. I've got two questions:
1) The latest version available in the web page is 0.1.1, but this mailing list speaks of other newer versions... aren't they packtized?

Not yet, but 0.1.3-pre1 shortly will be. The releases on the ELKS website can easily lag behind those being used since those with the abilities to create releases are also the busiest of the developers. The best way to obtain the current code is using CVS with commands like the following...

export CVS_RSH=which ssh CVSROOT=:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/elks cvs -d $CVSROOT get elks elkscmd elksnet elksutils

...which will download the current code base for all four packages, and will drop it under the current directory.

2) Version 0.1.1 gives me the next error:

I'm not sure what that bug was, but it doesn't appear to be present in the current CVS version which is 0.1.3-pre1 so has presumably been fixed in the meantime.

Best wishes from Riley.

Bad news: it also happens in the latests cvs snap. Maybe of a wrong dev86 version?

Nopes. I also did so, and nothing solved.

I think the problem is related to the gcc version used in debian testing.
The default gcc version is 3.3, but 2.95 is also installed. Forcing it to use 2.95 seems to compile (althoug it still does not boot)

testing. The default gcc version is 3.3, but 2.95 is also installed. Forcing it to use 2.95 seems to compile (althoug it still does not boot)

Aha! So changing gcc to gcc-2.95 in Makefile-rules in the elks tree seems
to solve the compilation problem. It compiles... but does not run. I've got what seems to be a dump of AX, BX, CX, DX registers, scrolling quickly through the screen.

I am actually trying to run elks in vmware. The first step was to
download the Images.zip tarball and use it. It works... more or less ;-)

The comb image boots without problems, and I can even log in and play.
The boot/root image does not work; it causes the same error than my home-compiled kernel.

So there seems to be any configuration option which makes elks not
runable under vmware. Does someone have a .config file for the boot image and another one for the comb image, to look for the diference?

Any other idea?

Regards,

Same thing here on Debian GNU/Linux unstable about gcc and dev86 0.16.11. Though, using dev86 0.16.0 gives me a working kernel.
