Hi All,

Here is the RC4 of kernel 4.17 for the X5000 and X1000.

New:
Download: vmlinux-4.17-rc4-AmigaOne_X1000_X5000.tar.gz

PLEASE test it because it has been cross compiled and I don't know if it works on your AmigaOne.

Thanks,
Christian

Hi All,

I added QEMU support to the X5000 Linux kernel for testing today. Now, it's possible to boot the X5000 Linux kernel in a virtual P5020DS machine as well.

Could you please test this kernel with your X5000? I would like to know if it boots and works on your X5000.

Download: uImage-4.17_qemu

Screenshot of a virtual P5020DS machine with the X5000 kernel 4.17-rc4:

I tested the kernel with SliTaz PPC Linux.

You can boot the kernel with QEMU with the following command:

Code: Select all

qemu-system-ppc64 -cpu e5500 -M mpc8544ds -m 2048 -initrd /home/christian/Downloads/slitaz25.gz -nographic -kernel /home/christian/Downloads/uImage-4.17_qemu -net nic,vlan=0,model=e1000 -net user,vlan=0 -machine dt_compatible=fsl,,P5020DS -append "root=/dev/ramdisk"
Thanks,
Christian

QEMU: You can also boot it with the machine ppce500:

Code: Select all

qemu-system-ppc64 -M ppce500 -cpu e5500 -m 2048 -initrd /home/christian/Downloads/slitaz25.gz -nographic -kernel /home/christian/Downloads/uImage-4.17_qemu -net nic,vlan=0,model=e1000 -net user,vlan=0 -machine dt_compatible=fsl,,P5020DS -append "root=/dev/ramdisk"
