Re: [PPC64] Partman doesn't recognize our partitions
Adrian,
I have found an initrd.gz (32-bit) from 06/10/2017 [1]. I copied it to
the onboard CF card and after that I booted it with the latest stable
kernel 4.13.5 with the following commands:
CFE> ramdisk -z -addr=0x24000000 -fatfs cf0:initrd.gz
CFE> setenv bootargs "root=/dev/ramdisk"
CFE> boot -elf -noints -fatfs cf0:vmlinux-4.13
Unfortunately partman stops at 52%. The PPC32 initrd has the same
problem. I have also found a Debian 8/Jessie initrd.gz (32-bit) from
20/07/2017 [2]. I also copied it to the onboard CF card and after that I
booted it with the same CFE commands. Partman on the Debian8/Jessie
initrd.gz (32-bit) works! It's possible to install Debian 8 and upgrade
it to Debian 9/Sid. On the syslog console I saw that partman found all
partitions! I could also test the Debian 8/Jessie PPC64 initrd.gz [3] if
you like.
Cheers,
Christian
