I only meant it obscured things, not that it was wrong. It may have obscured an incorrect path, or simply been a red herring.

There are multiple descriptions of how to download the sources. I followed one which said to use the -A cvs option. I tried to build it anyway, but the build bombed. (Also there was a problem with several usr.bin directories having the CVS files in subdirectories so the ‘rm -f’ clean operations would fail. Manually deleting them would allow the build to continue, but I figured I was already off the reservation when the next failure happened.)

I then went back and downloaded the release 8 tarballs since I couldn’t figure out what the release tag was. It built fine, but when I loaded up the install kernel it failed during boot. (This is the gzipped uboot kernel in the object directory, not a labeled one based off what was put in the release directory.) Did someone add code to disable the watchdog timer and blow an alignment? I don’t know what to do in the kernel debugger, but maybe this is helpful.
