Hmm. These are the same symptoms as Debian bug report number 523942. Does that mean that stock kernel image linux-image-2.6.26-2-s390 version 2.6.26-19 will work for me? I've been continuing to build a custom kernel with make-kpkg every time there's an update to the kernel as my only circumvention. Don't ask me why the version created by make-kpkg works but the stock kernel image doesn't work, but that's how I've been circumventing the problem. I'd really like to get back to a stock kernel if I can. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-s390-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
