IBM RS6k 43P-140 d-i boot failure
Hello,
I try to install Sarge with d-i on a IBM RS600 machine (prep class, from 1997).
Unfortunately, the install system dies with the messages below.
The boot CD is a regular CD1 for PPC, weekly snapshot, assembled with jigdo
last week wednesday (IIRC). Unfortnately I cannot see the problem. I assume I
need to specify a different boot image but I don't see where. With the video
card built-in, I get the SMS console where I can open a boot console with F8.
There I have also tried to specify boot
cdrom:\install\powerpc\...\vmlinux-prep.initrd, I got an "ok" but nothing
happened. And with the serial console only, I get the attached thing.
