Package: linux-image-3.12-0.bpo.1-kirkwood
Version: 3.12.6-2~bpo70+1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

 I run Wheezy on a SheevaPlug. In this system, I added wheezy-backports some
time ago, so far so good. I recently upgraded kernel to
linux-image-3.12-0.bpo.1-kirkwood. Once I rebooted I found out that system was
unbootable. This is what I could see from serial console:

--- 
Starting kernel ...

Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.

Error: unrecognized/unsupported machine ID (r1 = 0x00000831).

Please check your kernel config and/or bootloader.

  flash-kernel pacakage is installed and configured so on each kernel upgrade
the boot images (kernel and initrd) are upgraded and use on next boot.

  I had to change u-boot boot parameters so system boots with previous kernel,
by then it was 3.11, installed by package linux-image-3.11-0.bpo.2-kirkwood

  I've surfed BTS and I think this problem is closely related to [0]. This one 
is solved, but so far it is not for wheezy-backports, hence the booting 
problem.

  Unfortunately, fixed flash-kernel package version is not available for
wheezy-backports. Taken all this into consideration, I think
linux-image-3.12-0.bpo.1-kirkwood should depend on the proper flash-kernel
version (>=3.12) and/or getting fixed flash-kernel package uploaded to
wheezy-backports.

  I'm sending this bug report against linux-image-3.12-0.bpo.1-kirkwood 
because I think that this package should or could perform pertinent checks in 
order to avoid boot failures like this. albeit the right fix finally implies 
uploading fixed flash-kernel version to wheezy-backports. Well, this is my view, 
but I may well be wrong. What do you think?

  Pd.: Feel free to contact me for any relevant information.

  Thanks and regards,

This was http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=731345 which
was fixed in flash-kernel 3.12.

Balint uploaded f-k 3.12 to backports this morning, it is in the
relevant new queue: https://ftp-master.debian.org/backports-new.html

Closing this bug.

Ian.
