No. I did install the 4.3.0-1, as well the 4.4.0-rc6 from experimental.
But both kernels do a Oops on the QLogic 2200 driver. And there for the
root drive isn't mounting. Ending at the initramfs prompt now. Talking
about a Sun Blade 1000 Workstation. I installed the firmware needed.

Look like the same problem seen some months a go with 4.1.x. It's nice
to know the same sparc64 partition does boot with the old 3.2.0-2 one.

Am I able to save a dmesg.txt on a usb stick? Question; what kernel
modules do I need to modprobe exactly. Because I did test some stuff
today, but wasn't able with the default initramfs getting usb mounted.

Thanks,
