This is maybe normal when the resolution is switched, but the fact that this
bug happens also when it is only a temporary switch to lower resolution full

Just create a small /boot at the start of the disk as normal ext3 (or even

Mmm, my previous patch didn't quite make it, this one should be better.
At least it allows me to build nubus kernel .debs, but didn't try it on a
nubus machine yet.

Also, this would be the perfect time to NEW-process the powerpc 2.6.10 kernel.

If you don't fix this because you don't have time, i can do an NMU, or simply
drop the nubus support until you fix this bug, just asking to know how you
stand on this issue, and not wait in the empty :).

I have some serious doubts about this, don't forget to run ybin too, and such
stuff. I helped a guy out with a toilet-seat ibook at Solutions Linux last
month, and this exact error message was the result of the missing initrd line.

nice catch.
I am still curious that this issue if present in libparted was seen from
partman and not from parted itself. No wonder i didn't find anything in the
partman code himself.

development plateform of benjamin herrenschmidt, among others, who was
involved in the openfirmware driver move.
As thus, adding support for the openfirmware plateform devices is needed to
continue to have hotplug support for those devices, and vital for yaird.
