Re: [MiNT] Kernel debug messages serial port

[David Gálvez <dgalvez75@gmail.com>]

OK, thanks Miro, i found the mail, but i was asking about specific
Falcon case, his question was more general.
Anyway i tried a debug kernel and it works i'm getting the messages
into my laptop terminal (i had to change speed from 19200, that was
mention in the documentation, to 9600).

Problem now is that i'm not going too far, during boot i'm getting a
fatal error:

init_filesys() ok!
init_proc() inf : 120C390, 120C368, 120C340, 120C350, 120BF00, 120BBD8, 120BA80
pid   5 (grep): halt: invalid stack frame format
FATAL ERROR. You must reboot the system.

This is with kernel 1.16.curr with debug level 1.
I'm going to do more investigations.

Thanks for your help.
