Well, the loader is certainly happy, but the kernel is not.. I removed
'options SKI' since I figured that wasn't going to do much good, and a whole
bunch of other stuff. I tried it with and without acpica, after doing
a couple of obvious fixes to the types (if there is non-obvious stuff
that is also required, I didn't get that far). Is there some other magic
that is required?
I think we need a seperate "SKI" and "GENERIC" kernel, like we have with
the Alpha with SIMOS and GENERIC. There isn't much point compiling device
drivers into the SKI kernel, for example.
