The title of this bug should be changed as it has nothing to do with the debian installer. It applies equally to a live ISO as well as an installed system that is updated to the latest kernel.
Don't waste your time with single/recovery modes. The only way I have been able to boot is to force a 32 bit depth on the radeonfb framebuffer. Any other colour depth (8, 16) still causes a crash. Forcing a 32 bit depth on radeondrmfb still has the crash - so KMS is currently impossible as far as I can tell. I don't know how you would overcome it on nvidia..... Walter/wxl has 64mb of video ram I believe on nvidia. Jonathon Marsden also has nvidia, but how much video ram? Can everybody confirm how much they have - I have only 32mb. Is that the difference? Or is the video a red herring and it is say sound modules that are the problem? I can't get logs - anybody else? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1066435 Title: Debian-installer powerpc recursive fault To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1066435/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
