Scropp,

I don't have access to the a1users list, perhaps somebody could submit these as a new feature and we can link to that?

Thanks

Thanks, this thread will be very helpfull to me when I finally get to install an OS on my A1.
I have waited 10 years for a new Amiga and when I finally got one I couldn't find time to use it the first week

Will hopefully get it going tomorrow (optimistic, I know)...

Again, thanks for the usefull links and to everybody that did the sites.

Ken Moffat's page :

Kernel 2.6.9-064 patch for amigaone (most stable for me too) .

- get kernel 2.6.9 from www.kernel.org
- apply patch (grep linux-2.6.9/README with the word patch to see howto do it)

If someone want it, I can post the uImage + modules somewhere.

If it's as stable as the amigaone-linux.sf.net 2.4.26 kernel please upload it.

@joerg

It is stable for me, that's all I can say.
I've put the image + modules on http://users.skynet.be/henri.chapelle

(this image is for siimage ide and maybe fixed via ide because dma is enabled)

Thanks, but it's unusable here (7455, sii0680 with DMA enabled), total lockups, gfx corruption in X11, etc.

@joerg

Damn. It works here. Fixed A1 G4 7455, sii0680 and DMA too.
2.4.26 didn't work since I had my A1 fixed (machine freezes during boot). Now it works again.
During the boot process, the screen resolution doesn't change so when I reach the prompt it's still in low resolution but resolution in X is OK.

Thanks henriavelabarbe.

@mwoof

It includes ohci and more modules.

Also posted the actual kernel image I use now (name test_sii3).
Maybe this one will give different result for people havin issue...

@henriavelabarbe

Another modules is corrupted, I wasn't try kernel yet. Could you upload a proper version of modules pls
