Hi!

The kernel compiled, but turned out to be bogus since at boot time it
dumped its registers giving this explanation:

    trap type 1, code=0, v=16bccc
    kernel: Address error trap
    pid=0, pc=00E2416, p=2000, sfc=0001, dfc=0001...
    panic: Address error

Here's the dubugger stuff:

Still trying to get a scsiconf.c path into a custom kernel so MEDIAVIS
RENOX2A cdrom drive will mount. Right now the GENERIC 44 chokes on it.
Is there a faq on how to use the debugger info, or a tutorial?

Any help compiling a new kernel is helpful!
