9542.0. "kernel build under 4.0b" by NNTPD::"[email protected]" (Steve Typhair) Thu Apr 17 1997 21:42

Hi

For some reason I'm running into a problem with a current install on a 
4100 system.  It continually fails on the kernel build after either a 
base or full subset install...?

I bring it up to multi-user mode with the original kernel and try a 
doconfig with the same results, it does mention ace_regbase is undefined.

Anyone else see this problem?

Cheers
Steve

    Hi, Steve. 
    
    I'm pretty sure you need to re-run the ECU in order to fix
    this. It's a little different on a 4100 too - I've got some
    specifics but I can't get to the notes right now - NFS server
    is down. 
    
    I'll try to place them here later...
    
    Hth,

    You also want to make sure that ace is include in your config 
    file in /sys/conf/XXX  where XXX is the system name.  It should
    look like this:
    
    controller      ace0       at eisa0     slot  8 vector    aceintr 
    controller      ace1       at eisa0     slot  9 vector    aceintr 
    
    though I suppose things like slot numbers may vary.  We ran into
    this problem when setting up our rawhide.
