Hello all,
After the clean install of Irix 6.5.17f on the Indy R5000 I installed PPP and UUCP base and utilities and then when I am trying to start PPP I have "ioctl(I_PUSH)ppp_fram : invalid argument" in SYSLOG file. I checked with autoconfig -vf and it looks like modules were successfully linked to the kernel but "lboot -V" reports that there are no if_ppp and ppp_fram modules registered or loaded. I was tryiing to do "lboot -L ppp_fram and lboot -L if_ppp" and it reports "GP section not supported, try to recompile with -G0" I tried to play with the systune and irix.sm to adjust the kernel itself but I had no success.
Unfortunately I do not have the source code to build ppp_fram.o and if_ppp.o modules with the linker option -G0. I am completely stuck at this point. I checked the knowledge base and all available patches and found nothing. The PPP does not work at all. Please help.
Thank you in advance
Victor.
