I am using the released version of 8.10 in a fresh install, and am
getting this same issue, I am just stuck in an infinite loop in the
kboot prompt. What do I need to type in which prompt (kboot/ash) to fix
this and implement this workaround? When will it actually be fixed? I am
surprised that we have a release of 8.10 which can't even boot after
installation, that's a really bad start for lots of people trying Linux
on their PS3 for the first time.

** Description changed:
After a fresh install of Intrepid on PS3, ps3-kboot fails to
automatically find and mount the target partition /dev/ps3da1. The
problem can be worked around by using e2label to set the filesystem
lable to "/":
e2label /dev/ps3da1 "/"
Once this has been done ps3-kboot correct finds the target partition and
the system can be booted.
This used to work in previous versions of Ubuntu for PS3, so something
has changed, most likely in the installer.

+ How do I do this? What commands to I type into which window (KBOOT,
+ ASH?) in which order to do this? I can't get my PS3 booting now, just
+ installed Ubuntu over my Yellowdog install to ditch RPMs, and am having
+ a bad start.
