Package: yaboot Version: 1.3.13a-1squeeze1 Severity: normal
mkofboot currently contains the following lines: if (cat /proc/cpuinfo 2> /dev/null | grep ^machine | grep -q 'CHRP IBM'); then fstype=raw else fstype=hfs I believe the conditional check needs to be extended to also recognize the PPC970MP processors in the PowerStation. With the code as-is, the installer consistently fails to successfully reboot after installation. By commenting out the conditional altogether and forcing fstype=raw, I was able to succesfully reboot the machine after installation. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-powerpc64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages yaboot depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib Versions of packages yaboot recommends: pn hfsutils <none> (no description available) ii powerpc-utils 1.1.3-24 Various utilities for Linux/PowerP yaboot suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
