Hi!
I just created two new installer images for sparc64, based on Linux
4.5.2. These images contain my kernel patches which fix the automatic
loading of the vio modules sunvdc and sunvnet when installing in an
LDOM.

Feedback welcome.
Known issues:
- Installing additional software packages may fail; just install
a minimal set of packages.
- Serial console may not be enabled by default after install,

Sorry it's taken me a while to get time to go look at this ISO set.

vdiska is the cdrom and the 8 partitions are as expected (they all
point to the same partition) and vdiskb is seen by the kernel
so popped back into the install and asked it to detect disks again.
"No disk drive was detected"
Hurm,...
Ok lets have a look at what partman thinks is there

version `GLIBC_2.22' not found (required by
/lib/libdevmapper.so.1.02.1)

Ugh was that because I jumped the gun a little through the shell?
