Bug Description
Binary package hint: linux-source-2.6.22
current daily live powerpc cds (20070704 and 20070705) fail to boot on a titanium powerbook 1 ghz 15"
yaboot loads, and i have tried live, check and tried the video=ofonly option.
then i see the splash screen, with the back and forwards loading bar. then it drops a busybox shell with a (initramfs) prompt.
cat casper.log gives
Unable to find a medium containing a live file system
the md5sum of the disk is correct (md5sum /dev/cdrom)
If i use the live-nosplash boot option, there are no messages between "Loading, please wait..." and the busybox shell
To post a comment you must log in.
the kernel bugs page asks for uname -a and /proc/version_ signature, but as i cannot generate these i on the nonbooting live cd, i can't see that they would be useful. tell me if i am wrong
