kernel panic! attempted to kill init! on sparc64

[schparkie]

Hi,

I just finished installing the latest on my sparc64 (stage3-sparc64-1.4_rc4). Everything went well until the first boot, when I got a "Kernel panic! Attempted to kill init!" message. The only changes I made in the kernel were the ones specified in the install document, and I enabled cgthree under the sbus framebuffer option of the console section. Since then, I have disabled other items like USB thinking there may be a conflict but I get the same error each time. I've attached my config below. I've even tried with vanilla-sources and got the same message.

I have an Ultra1 server with a cgthree card, 4Gb drive and 512M ram.

The error comes after some other stuff that scrolled off the screen. It then tells me to press 'L1-A' to get back to the open prom.

Any help is greatly appreciated. The kernel that boots off the LiveCD works fine but it doesn't have cgthree support built in.

Hey Russell,

My first inclination is perhaps your silo.conf doesn't have the right path for the root partition. Do you have any funky config options in there?

[schparkie]

Hi Jason,

This is my silo.conf
------------------
partition = 1
root = /dev/sda4
timeout = 10
image = /boot/vmlinux
label = linux
------------------
I am able to run 'silo' without errors. I only have one hard drive partitioned as follows:
/dev/sda1 32M mount point '/boot'
/dev/sda2 1024M swap
/dev/sda3 Whole Disk
/dev/sda4 3G mount point '/'

It's all very vanilla. Maybe you could email me your .config file and I'll try compiling with that. The only thing I need is cgthree support so I can run X.

Thanks,
Russell
