Hi guys, Curious to know if anyone has tried the 4.0 or 4.0.1 kernel on an 810 yet? Right after the pbsdboot1 loads the kernel, and execs, it goes to a mostly black screen with white "snow", then hangs. I have to reset to get out. I am using the TX3912 kernel from the FTP site. I already have an exploded 4.0 userland on the flash card that works fine in a MobilePro 880. I was hopeing to just switch kernels to boot the 810. I tried backing up to the 3.1.1 and 3.0.3 kernels. They booted far enough to show Irq assignments, PCMCIA probe, and the wd0 probe of the flash. Then it hung. However, I'm also guessing that could be due to the mismatched kernel and userland at that point since it looks nearly ready to launch init. I would like to know any successes or failures with the more recent kernels that people have had. Regards, -S-
