Re: Bug#1004255: linux-image-5.14.0-1-sparc64-smp: Debian kernels > 5.14.3-1~exp1 fail to boot on SPARC T4-1 with Fast Data Access MMU Miss

[Rich <rincebrain@gmail.com>]

At least on my old Netra T1, SILO has never believed in booting vmlinuz, only vmlinux, and faults similarly if you try.

So if it just recently started faulting that way for you, perhaps any glue that knew to unpack vmlinuz into vmlinux isn't working?

This looks more like an issue with your bootloader. I haven't used SILO for a
long time, so I don't have a track what currently works and what not.

Can you try booting the current ISO snapshot image? [1]
