hi all, here instead the log from serial debug console booting the last working kernel i.e. linux-2.16.62 compiled with arch=ppc .

Maybe it's an usefull observation. cheers, Nell -- 1861 - 2011: 150 years of Italian Unity _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
