Last night I got pl14 and did make config; make dep; make and installed it so that LILO could boot it as new. It seemed to work perfectly for a few minutes and then did a spontaneous cold boot. Brought it up again, fsck'd all filesystems and all seemed ok. However when I then entered my normal run level from init I couldn't log in - I got login prompts but it wouldn't accept keypresses or Ctrl-Alt-Del. Also, when pl14 was up I wasn't able to play my sound files I just got I/O error writng /dev/audio (or some such). So I went back to pl12, and started again, leaving out the sound stuff and did make clean; make config; make dep; make. This one didn't work either. Config: plain 0.99.pl14 kernel - changed number of tasks to 256 changed number of consoles to 256 no math emulation no scsi minix, xiafs, proc, msdos file systems slip sound (SoundBlaster 16ASP) serial mouse 486DX33 GCC 2.4.5 libc 4.4.4 Any ideas ? Anyone else experiencing the same problem ?
