You may try http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Bay/2602/ for
some up to date information. Booter and other tools will be also
available from this place or http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/unix/Linux/680x0/q40/ and mirrors.
Hints to documentation usually refer to the linux source tree in
/usr/src/linux/Documentation unless URL given.
It seems IRQ unmasking can't be safely done on a Q40. IRQ probing
is not implemented - donottry it! (See below)
For a list of kernel command-line options read the documentation for the
particular device drivers.
The floppy imposes a very high interrupt load on the CPU, approx 30K/s.
When something blocks interrupts (HD) it will lose some of them, so far this is not known to have caused any data loss. On highly loaded systems
it can make the floppy very slow or practically stop. Other Q40 OS' simply
poll the floppy forthis reason - something that can't be done in Linux.
Only possible cure is getting a 82072 controller with fifo instead of
the 8272A.
drivers used by the Q40, apart from the very obvious (console etc.):
drivers/char/q40_keyb.c # use PC keymaps for national keyboards
serial.c # normal PC driver - any speed
lp.c # printer driver
genrtc.c # RTC char/joystick/* # most of this should work, not #indefaultconfig.in block/floppy.c#normalPCdriver,DMAemuinasm/floppy.h #andarch/m68k/kernel/entry.S #seedrivers/block/README.fd ata/pata_falcon.c net/ne.c video/q40fb.c parport/* sound/dmasound_core.c dmasound_q40.c
