Hi.

I have the following setup:
  PowerBase 180 (PPC 603e)
   136MB RAM
   20GB HD
   Sonnet G3 400MHz upgrade
   Macally PCI ethernet adapter
   Iomega Zip drive
  YellowDog Linux CS 1.1 (kernel 2.2.6-16bpmac)
   BootX 1.1

I applied mol-kernel-2.2.6.patch and compiled accordingly. I then placed
the resultant kernel in the Linux Kernels folder in the MacOS System
Folder.

During the linux boot using the new vmlinux, the process hangs. The last
message printed to the screen is "pcnet32.c: PCI Bios is present, checking
for devices...."

What could be the problem? I'd appreciate any help.

Thanks.
