Hi,

just a status report. It works! So I have requested pull-up for my
mkbootimage fixes. NetBSD-6 should work as well.

After replacing bad disks and a broken floppy disk drive I managed to boot
the installation kernel. The system (66MHz, 80MB) is now booting and running
multiuser from a SCSI disk (still needs the boot-floppy, though).

As everybody loves boot-logs, here it is:

Things that don't work yet:

1. Reboot. All blinken lights (left and right) are activated. Then the
   system hangs, until I manually press the reset buttons.

2. illegal request, data = 0 0 0 0 24 0 0 cb 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 ff ff ff ff...
   when booting from SCSI is suspicious. Although the boot loader continues
   to load the kernel.

3. Similar problem when booting from disk. There is always one read error,
   and it's always the same. No matter which disk or kernel:
       func: F_READ
        st0 = 0x44
        st1 = 0x4
        st2 = 0x10
          c = 0x3
          h = 0x1
          r = 0x3
          n = 0x2
   The kernel loads nevertheless.

4. Audio, wss(4), doesn't work. There is no crash or other malfunction,
   but the internal speaker and the external audio connectors remain
   silent.

5. Floppy disk driver fdc(4) doesn't work. It reads something from disk,
   but it has nothing to do with the disk's contents.

6. mcclock(4) doesn't work correctly. The time after a cold-start is
   wrong (e.g. "WARNING: preposterous TOD clock time"). Maybe I need a
   new battery, but IIRC it worked under BeOS.

7. X11/Xorg doesn't work yet. Cannot map I/O space. But the correct driver
   (S3) is recognized:
   [   888.123] (WW) xf86EnableIO -1
   [   888.126] (II) xf86EnableIO: ffffffff
   [   888.128] (WW) Can't map IO space!   
   [   888.143] (--) PCI:*(0:0:13:0) 5333:8811:0000:0000 rev 0, Mem @ 
0x00000000/8
   [   888.170] (==) Using default built-in configuration (12 lines)
   [   888.214] (==) --- Start of built-in configuration ---
   [   888.216]    Section "Device"
   [   888.218]            Identifier      "Builtin Default s3 Device 0"
   [   888.220]            Driver  "s3"
   [   888.222]    EndSection

8. IDE disks hang the system. The boot loader seems to support IDE disks,
   but the kernel doesn't. As soon as the atabus0 process is running the
   kernel hangs in infinite interrupts. The stack backtrace shows these
   four repeating forever:
   pic_do_pending_int+0x1ac
   splx+0x50
   pic_handle_intr+0x220
   trapstart+0x690

9. Multiprocessor support. I compiled the GENERIC.MP kernel, but the
   boot loader doesn't want to load it. A renamed GENERIC kernel works,
   which is strange.
   Boot: /dev/disk/scsi/000/0_0:netbsdmp   
   Loading /dev/disk/scsi/000/0_0:netbsdmp
   illegal request, data = 0 0 0 0 24 0 0 cb 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 ff ff ff ff 0 0 0 0
   PHASE MSGIN: siop_clearfifo...
   invalid status code 128
   generic HBA error
   siop_intr: I shouldn't be there !


Something which would be very nice for the future: Support for APM (Apple
Partition Map) partitioned disks. So we could add a minimal Be_FS
partition with the boot loader, and there is no more need for the boot
disk. It might also be possible to co-exist with BeOS on one disk.
