Hi,

NetBSD/bebox has been broken for me for quite some time. Although
the machine started from the boot floppy I created, it always stopped
after decompressing the kernel and printing the start adress of the
kernel:

  Boot: Loading in()
  2295896+284064 [124704+113718]=0x2b0404
  start=0x3100

Tonight I discovered that it always crashed/hung somewhere in
machdep.c:consinit(). Because I had no clue about what I was doing I
compared machdep.c for the BeBox with the corresponding file for port
PReP since they are very similar.

With revision 1.50 of prep/machdep.c the calling order of
prep_bus_space_init(), consinit(), oea_batinit(), oea_init() was
changed. Bebox/machdep.c did not follow that and after I applied this
change I could see the configuration output from the kernel again, up
until the error messages for the IDE drive, but that's a different
problem.

Is it ok to the change to bebox/machdep.c so that bebox_bus_space_init()
and consinit() are now called after oea_batinit() and oea_init()?

The order of the arguments of oea_batinit() is different between
NetBSD/prep and NetBSD/bebox. Is this difference significant? If not I
would like to change it for the BeBox to be the same as PReP.

Port PReP installs the interrupt handler after prep_bus_space_init() and
consinit(), port BeBox did it directly in oea_init() and thus it is now
done before bebox_bus_space_init()/consinit(). Does this matter in any
way?


ciao
