I am wondering if there is a maximum file that yaboot can handle for the ramdisk. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1564046 Title: New install boot failure Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Ubuntu-Mate 16.04 Beta2 PowerMac 11,2 2x2.3GHz 6.5GB GeForce 6600 Pcie 256MB Live session boots and works mostly normally, there was one crash that was automatically reported.
