Both articles there describe 2.4 - first one probably
(talks of 2.6 but later says "run your kernel on Skyeye
by "skyeye -e linux-2.4.x/linux"), second one definitely.

I googled several hours and tried many variants, including
this one - as I wrote, I think there is a more general
problem somewhere happening very early at the startup,
so early that the exact kernel configuration probably
does not matter much. My suspicion is that the recent
2.6 kernels use some instructions in the startup code
that the skyeye is not able to handle correctly.

So I'd like to see 'hard data' of a working config -
i.e. configuration files, version numbers and start
logs, not a vague description of how to get there.

Unfortunately there are too many variables and I need
a starting point from what I can try to search for the
cause - because even if it runs using some special
version, it is important to know why it does _not_
run with the recent versions I've tried.


I don't seem able to successfully subscribe to uclinux-dev -
hope the folks there read skyeye-developer from time to time.

Regards
