Hi all,
The kernel that is currently available in AmiUpdate does not boot, the one from Update 6 works. It stops before I can enter the early boot screen, but I can see the OS4.1 image. I have an A4000D with Mediator 4000Di, Radeon 9250 128MB, CyberstormPPC 50/200, RTL8029AB.
Best regards,
Oliver

Re: New kernel does not boot
Oliver, we are aware of the issue affecting some systems and this kernel - mostly Mediator A4000D systems with PCI graphic cards. We're working on narrowing down the cause....for now revert to the update 6 kernel.ciVic wrote:Hi all,

Re: New kernel does not boot
Thank you for the fast answer. Maybe also interesting ist, that (with every kernel version) the system freezes even before displaying the OS 4.1 screen when DVI is connected so I can use VGA only.

Re: New kernel does not boot
I didn't know about the DVI freeze - probably because I only have VGA on my card. Are you able to get a serial log of this?ciVic wrote:Thank you for the fast answer.

Re: New kernel does not boot
Thanks, seems to just stop after it finds the graphics card rom. Would you mind to try again using the debug kernel? Just modify your Kicklayout-A4000 file and put kernel.debug instead of kernel. Get the serial log and post.ciVic wrote:Here it is.

There is also an excellent article regarding setting up and obtaining serial output at http://wiki.amigaos.net/index.php/Advan ... ging_Guide

Re: New kernel does not boot
Oh I thought it was the debug kernel since I changed that in the layout for the A4000. How can I see in the log that the debug kernel was loaded?

Re: New kernel does not boot
Don't worry about it, I've isolated at which kernel it fails and I have reported the crashlogs to the developers...so hopefully they will be able to fix this soon.ciVic wrote:Oh I thought it was the debug kernel since I changed that in the layout for the A4000.

Re: New kernel does not boot
We figured out the root cause. The solution will be delivered with AmiUpdate once it has passed through beta testing.
