Description Timothy Stotts 2006-09-05 12:19:18 UTC
Hi. I've been using each app-emulation/mol snapshot for well over a year.

Version 0.9.71_pre9 emerges without issue.  However, MOL reports a driver failure and will not boot Mac OS X 10.3.9 .  Downgrading to 0.9.71_pre8 returns MOL to perfect working condition.

Starting MOL yields the following output.  Then MOL presents a blank window and wastes CPU at 100% indefinitely.  Sometimes the MOL logo shows up with animation eventually, *extremely* slow; sometimes not at all.  Mac OS X never actually boots. The error is at the bottom of the copy-and-pasted output:

ablk iofunc: Bad address
ABlk engine error

Yep, it's a bug, I've already masked _pre9 to address it and added _pre8-r1 to fix the build issues with _pre8.  I'll unmask it when it's fixed in MOL.

Thanks!

(In reply to comment #3)

BTW, what were the kernel / gcc 4 build issues?  (Bug or forum link?) I never noticed any with _pre8 using the latest stable kernel and gcc.

The GCC 4.x issues were mostly unsigned/signed issues as well as strict aliasing issues.  I messed something up in those fixes, the _pre8-r1 has the build fixes for the problems above without the GCC 4.x fixes.
Comment 6 Timothy Stotts 2006-09-05 16:55:35 UTC
I see.  Good to know for future reference.  Thanks!
