This is an experimental 64bit kernel for the SGI O2 R5k R10000 O2 is UNSUPPORTED This kernel includes: - a fully working kernel core, including caching support - SCSI support - keyboard support (EXPERIMENTAL) - serial port support (including a console on serial port) - O2 ethernet support (EXPERIMENTAL) - O2 framebuffer support (EXPERIMENTAL) Things that are still not working/unsupported include: - mouse - A/V board - VICE chip .. and of course.. this is provided with NO WARRANTY at all.. I'm not liable for anything you could do with this kernel. If the "console" variable is set to "d" in the PROM, the kernel console will be on the serial port. Otherwise (that is, when the O2 boots in graphic mode) the kernel console will be displayed on the framebuffer. This kernel was built out of oss.sgi.com CVS linux 2.5.1 dated Thu Jul 4 13:40:31 UTC 2002 and the patches under the 'patches' directory you can find here, using the config file provided here too. Patches are provided under the GPL. See COPYING for details.
