Hello from across the Linux universe. I'm a Gentoo user, and in my quest to solve a 2.6.28 problem I saw this bug report. I thought I'd give you guys what I know so far and the Ubuntu devs can do with it what they want.
XSCALE causes a crash very early in boot on 2.6.28 kernels: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12520 As far as I know, the way the bug process works is, if the bug reporter can get one of the later 2.6.28 kernels or a kernel with the patch in that bug report, and he confirms it works, then anyone who does not have a recent processor with XSCALE support is not affected by this bug. ** Bug watch added: Linux Kernel Bug Tracker #12520 http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12520 -- linux 2.6.28 don't boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/343268 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
