Bug#258813: kernel-image-2.6.7-powerpc: Kernel oops on cmd64x driver load during kernel boot on B&W G3
Package: kernel-image-2.6.7-powerpc
Version: 2.6.7-3
Severity: normal
While reinstalling Debian onto my Power Macintosh G3 Blue & White, I
decided to try one of the packaged kernels for PowerPC systems.
Unfortunately, booting the 2.6.7 packaged kernel results in an Oops
during the boot process, apparently induced by a bug in the cmd64x IDE
controller driver. I don't currently have the Oops output, but I'll try
booting it later and follow up to this bug with the full Oops text (I'll
have to hand copy it, and it's of fairly healthy size).
