Hi @kowshik.jois, the (daily) images still have the same kernel inside (the 6.8 -11): $ rmadison --arch=ppc64el --suite=noble,noble-proposed linux-generic linux-generic | 6.8.0-11.11+1 | noble | ppc64el linux-generic | 6.8.0-20.20+1 | noble-proposed | ppc64el But there is now a newer kernel (-20), but it is still in -proposed. It takes some time until it transitions to release, and again a bit until it arrives in the ISO. So right now we are waiting until we have the -20 in the ISO, to be able to do more testing ... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2056491 Title: not able to install noble on PowerVM LPARs `Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block` To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-power-systems/+bug/2056491/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This is happening with Kernel 6.8 (currently available image noble-live- server-ppc64el.iso `2024-03-05 09:03`). I was able to install noble on the same systems last week, when Noble still had kernel 6.6. I'm also able to install Jammy 22.04.4 on both mentioned LPARs - P9 and P10.
