Example files for testing Linux 2.6 on PS2 ########################################## vmlinux2.6_v2.gz is a limited kernel with USB support. This is a proove of concept. Kernelloader 2.4 is required. I have tested this with my fat PS2 SCPH-50004 and VGA. This is working with the default configuration of kernelloader. This may run unstable. It has only support for graphic and USB. USB storage devices and USB keyboards are working. I added support for FTDI and Prolific PL2303 serial adapters, but I didn't tested this. Advanced Linux developers should be able to execute everything which fits into the initrd. You need files from a Linux distribution for mipsel. Only ABI 32 will work. ABI n32 or 64 can fail because of unsupported 64 bit multiplication instructions and there is no support in the 32 bit kernel. There are some graphic problems. The last line is not deleted and is copied, when scrolling up. You can restore the screen by switching consoles with ALT + <number key>. You can run it with the initrd from: http://http.us.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/main/installer-mipsel/current/images/malta/netboot/initrd.gz But installation will not work, because there is no support for the network adapter. You can use a network adapter which is supported by Linux, but you need to compile and load the driver yourself. The files are build on a Debian 5.0 from CVS with tag LINUX_2_6_V2.
