Then it's time for the next parts of the #OpenBSD/m88k story. In these parts, m88k systems get to finally enjoy ELF binaries with shared libraries, hardware support improves, and luna88k gets the best bootloader, ever. http://miod.online.fr/software/openbsd/stories/m88k4.html npub1gmxv8pu6t8vhzzv6wttcfw77llefyjgpzfkhyru7ttmld0us2p5sav0c50 Miod Vallat Vos cartes postales du #Cantal du jour. https://hostux.social/system/media_attachments/files/116/115/474/505/547/094/original/f4d2838573c22822.jpg https://hostux.social/system/media_attachments/files/116/115/474/510/604/029/original/4b059f167943796d.jpg https://hostux.social/system/media_attachments/files/116/115/474/515/667/520/original/5a3b46eea172871a.jpg https://hostux.social/system/media_attachments/files/116/115/474/526/196/786/original/8bd7ae986afdb189.jpg npub1gmxv8pu6t8vhzzv6wttcfw77llefyjgpzfkhyru7ttmld0us2p5sav0c50 Miod Vallat Well, well, well.

Try building a kernel without option FPSP, booting single-user (since not much will work without FPSP) and trying your binary - there should be no hangs, only SIGSEGV. Fixing the FPSP for corner cases is on my todolist but I have not addressed this yet (I have however some 060SP fixes I need to send your way - or Ignatios if he's still active - eventually). npub1gmxv8pu6t8vhzzv6wttcfw77llefyjgpzfkhyru7ttmld0us2p5sav0c50 Miod Vallat @nprofile…528n cgit ? npub1gmxv8pu6t8vhzzv6wttcfw77llefyjgpzfkhyru7ttmld0us2p5sav0c50 Miod Vallat Looks like the 1.5GHz G4 PowerBook has died. 😭 Screen goes blank a few seconds after powerup, with odd noises from the motherboard.

I figured out the root cause a few days ago, and today I commited the fix, and then removed the workaround (https://freshbsd.org/openbsd/src/commit/k6Wq2vYqoEGrDGnt).
