I have been trying to launch L4 (Fiasco) and the hello server from a version of grub other than that supplied on the grub-ext2fs-floppy.gz image.
When I take grub from the gnu server, it compiles but when I boot I get hung at:
RMGR: loading (hd1,1)/fiasco/sigma0 RMGR: detected new-style DD-L4 RMGR: starting (hd1,1)/fiasco/main -nokdb proto=0x10128c
Welcome to Fiasco! DD-L4/x86 microkernel (c) 1998 TU Dresden - Jul 4 2000 SIGMA0: Hello! RMGR: Hi there! RMGR running on L4/Pentium (hang)
When I take grub from the CVS server at Dresen, I fail in compilation:
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -I../stage1 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wunused -Os -fno-builtin -nostdinc -DFSYS_EXT2FS=1 -DFSYS_FAT=1 -DFSYS_FFS=1 -DFSYS_MINIX=1 -g -c -o pre_stage2_exec-asm.o asm.S /tmp/cc0xSXW3.s: Assembler messages: /tmp/cc0xSXW3.s:1189: Error: operands given don't match any known 386 instruction /tmp/cc0xSXW3.s:2109: Error: operands given don't match any known 386 instruction
this is using the latest versions of gcc and binutils (to the best of my knowledge)

Might anybody have any advice on how to proceed?

I had the same probs, but yesterday I noticed that it isn't a grub problem, but a CPU problem. If I am using a Thinkpad PII 366 RMGR hangs, too, but with an older PI 133 or Celeron 433 it works fine.

Fixed. Please do a CVS update -d.

Yes, it works now.
Another question: I think oskit10 is required now to compile the pkg package, but some subdirectories also use oskit/flux/c/*.h include files. Do I really need both oskit versions or should the makefiles be modified to use oskit10/oskit/c/*.h?

I remember, you've ever asked about it on Oct/1999. Unfortunately, I could not find the correct answer from l4-hackers mailinglist. Have you received any replies about it?
I think, still current Fiasco source tree is designed for "oskit" (not "oskit10"). We need oskit10 source tree to complete building l4/oskit10_support/ tree, but Fiasco/RMGR/sigma0/hello and L4-Linux do not use oskit10.
I've ever tried to rewrite l4/ tree for oskit10 (without oskit), but I couldn't make working kernel & modules. If interested, please check: 19991221075909.11104.qmail@file.phys.tohoku.ac.jp

Very interesting: If I start my system using vmware it works :-) It does not load L4Linux completely because of an vmware bug, but it loads rmgr, fiasco and my servers. Strange...
If I boot it using the P-II machine, the last message I get is: ... RMGR: WARNING: All memory about 128MB is wasted! (hang)

Is it due to CPU itself? Recently I had a chance to run Fiasco on PentiumII (Deschutes) 451MHz with 256MB RAM, I received same message which you reported.
RMGR: WARNING: All memory about 128MB is wasted! (hang)
I had supposed too large memory is harmful for RMGR. (This "128MB" limit is fixed in l4/pkg/rmgr/server/src/memmap.h) Yet I've not checked how it goes when the memories is reduced. In your case, all testing machines have memories larger than 128MB?

The Celeron yes, the pentium I machine not.

I use a Mobile Pentium II. Makes this a different?

Hello,
today I noticed that the system hangs if the memory is larger than 128MB (this can easily be tested using vmware). But the RMGR only writes the message mentioned below. Is this the expected behavior? If more than 128MB is not possible (without source modifications) I would expect at least an error message. Thus Fiasco seems to have _no_ problems with Pentium II CPUs, sorry.
