Maybe if I understood the syntax better I would have been able to hack
the right OF path-to-kernel, but not as of yet.
my devalias output had the following:
ide0 /pci/@d/mac-io/ata-3@2000
cd /pci/@d/mac-io/ata-3@2000/disk@0
zip /pci/@d/mac-io/ata-3@2000/disk@1
ide1 /pci/@d/pci-ata@1/ata-4@0
hd /pci/@d/pci-ata@1/ata-4@0/disk0
ultra0 /pci/@d/pci-ata@1/ata-4@0/disk0
utlra1 /pci/@d/pci-ata@1/ata-4@0/disk1
ultra1:2,/vmlinux did not work, I also tried variations on this, as
well as ultra0 variations.
before I continue hacking at this I think I need to understand what
this path is saying, let me try
ultra1:2 <-- this is an alias to the second partition on disk1
,/vmlinux <-- the path to the linux kernel on that partition
In the output of yaboot I got
/pci@8000000/pci-bridge@d/Ultra-Tek100P@4/0,0:2,/bootvmlinux-2.4.22-2f:
Unable to open file, Invalid device.
I tried the full OF path from devalias with the full kernel name which
I assumed would be the same as the error output from above
/pci/@d/pci-ata@1/ata-4@0/disk1/bootvmlinux-2.4.22-2f
no go. Well, this is where it stands now, not too sure what to do,
going to reread some documentation and see if something clicks, thanks
for all the help so far
