looking at the build_powerpc64_netboot64.log files of the previous versions, the last kernel was 2.6.15-1 which has the sbp2 bug. That was from the image 2006-03-29. The next kernel is 2.6.16-1 in the image from 2006-04-04, and it is still the image used in the most recent mini.iso. > > > . > > checking if image is initramfs...it isn't (no cpio magic); looks like an initrd > > Freeing initrd memory: 4652k freed > > NET: Registered protocol family 16 > > Linux ppc64 > > > > #2 SMP Mon Apr 10 18:55:49 CEST 2006 > > PCI: Probing PCI hardware > > mapping IO f0000000 -> d000080000400000, size: 800000 > > mapping IO f4000000 -> d000080000000000, size: 400000 > > PCI: Probing PCI hardware done > > nvram_init: Could not find nvram partition for nvram buffered error logging. > > audit: initializing netlink socket (disabled) > > audit(1145890159.990:1): initialized > > VFS: Disk quotas dquot_6.5.1 > > Dquot-cache hash table entries: 512 (order 0, 4096 bytes) > > Initializing Cryptographic API > > io scheduler noop registered > > io scheduler anticipatory registered (default) > > io scheduler deadline registered > > io scheduler cfq registered > > HVSI: registered 0 devices > > Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing disabled > > pmac_zilog: 0.6 (Benjamin Herrenschmidt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) > > pmac_zilog: Error registering serial device, disabling pmac_zilog. > > pmac_zilog: Did another serial driver already claim the minors? > > Trying to im_free nonexistent area (d0000800820d7000) > > > > With a previous version of the mini.iso, I was able to get to a shell > > to 'look around', but this time the boot did not get that far. > > What version was it ?
