Hmmm. This is fun. If I cross-compile the kernel myself it boots fine. I used my own cross-build system for this, not the Debian build system. Here's what I did: - apt-get source linux-2.6 (on lenny of course) - apply patches from all series files (1-17; except *-extra) - copy kernel config from 2.6.26-2-s390 - cross-build - install and boot the resulting .deb package Did I miss anything here? Anyway, I wonder if the problem is maybe just a weird error in the build environment used to build the current official package. If that is the case then a simple rebuild could fix that. Dann: could you maybe rebuild the kernel for s390 and send me the resulting image so I could check that?
