Boot to Linux on start

Open DeepHorizons opened this issue 10 years ago • 3 comments

Unable to boot to the linux system on startup.

-No GC controler is plugged in. -Tried renaming the kernel to ppcboot.elf and placing it in the bootmii folder -priloader is unable to properly launch the kernel

I'll take a look at it during my final update in late September. I no longer have a Wii and have become too busy elsewhere to maintain these patches any longer as of a few months ago. I did not forsee this happening and have been trying to find ways of making time, but just lack the time and experience. Sorry I cannot be of much help right now. Does this happen with all the kernels or just one of them? It is possible that I put the compiled demos in the wrong folder again. Did you compile the kernel?

Quite alright, I figure I would give you a heads up, but I'm also looking into the problem myself. I've only tested it with 3.10, and I'll try some others when I get the chance. I did not compile the kernels, but I will do that soon enough.

I think this is related: https://github.com/neagix/wii-linux-ngx/issues/2

You might want to verify that Linux boots fine, it's just that the video is not properly initialized. I am investigating on this issue, I believe it should be possible to fix it.
