hi,
recently i decided to make an Alpha EV45 / Avanti here as a testbed for
the latest 2.5 kernels. but it always fails to compile the kernel with
CONFIG_ALPHA_SRM=y
set. currently 2.4.20 is running stable with this option activiated.
having 2.5 compiled without SRM support, it won't boot (when
initializing memory, first step after boot-select via aboot is done, it
will get stuck.)
when compiling with SRM i get the following errors:
------------------------------------

i have tried this since 2.5.51 (?), and up to 2.5.60 the error is still
there. what could be wrong?
Thank you,
Christian.
