| Network patch (Posted by cgray, Tue 8 Sep) |
|
The PCI scanning code was missing from the hardware.c
file. A patch has been provided to fix hardware.c as
well as some other minor NFS bugs and add them to the build
system. These patches are available
here (040907_network, 040907_netmake).
Be sure to set your IP address correctly!
|
| Another patch (Posted by cgray, Mon 16 Aug) |
| A bug
has been found in the l4e_find_memory function that can cause
some obscure bugs. The patch and instructions are available here (040816_findmem).
|
| Patches for supplied code (Posted by cgray, Wed 11 Aug) |
|
There are a few bugs in the supplied code. Three new patches are
available here. The first patch
(040730_l4e_cache) should have already been applied when you setup m0.
|
| Serial cables have been installed (Posted by cgray, Mon 9 Aug) |
|
Second serial cables have been installed on all the MIPS boxes in the ASysT
lab. You should now be able to execute your m0 and subsequent code on hardware.
The 2nd serial port can be accessed with the console ttyS1 command.
