On this page I'll log the progress of the port
on my local DECStation, so you can follow what currently runs on my system.
If someone has a solution to some of my open issues, please
contact
me!
System:
DECStation 5000/260
R4400SC V4.0 CPU
256Mb RAM
Onboard SCSI
One Turbochannel SCSI card (finally working with
a patched 2.4.18 kernel)
1x 4.5Gb disk (Linux)
5x 2.1Gb disk2 in RAID-5 configuration
Sony CDROM
Console on serial port
Software:
Linux 2.4.18 compiled by native gcc (RH 7.3 environment)
System boots from local disk, using delo boot-loader
from ext3 partition
devfs and devfsd are working. I've submitted a small
kernel patch to make the serial drivers devfs-aware.
System runs multiuser on a local SCSI disk, or NFS-root.
Kernel module loading works
