I tried to update the sources with the latest CVS version, but the compilation failed. The file */arch/parisc/kernel/pdc_cons.c and */kernel/printk.c have a conflict. The variable log_size used in pdc_cons.c is not defined in printk.c. The kernel does not build.

The merge to 2.4.14 isn't finished yet.
Despite working around the log_size issue, it still doesn't boot.

Watch the parisc-linux-cvs mailing list for progress on this. We'll probably post an "It works" msg here too.

[parisc-linux] Update: Current kernel from CVS does not build

This is just an update on this issue....

32bit kernels from CVS head (>= 2.4.14-pa1) should now compile and boot again. There still may be hidden issues (as always :-)), but basically it will work.

Re: [parisc-linux] Update: Current kernel from CVS does not build

Yes the kernel boots, I can see the boot messages, but the STI console still does not accept keyboard input at the login prompt at the end.

There is still an inconsistency between the pdc_con.c and printk.c files. pdc_cons.c uses the variables log_end and con_start, which are declared static in printk.c. Commenting out their use in pdc_con.c lets me finish the compilation, but as I said I can't type anything.

By the way, I can see the keyboard interrupts in /proc.
