Public bug reported:
This server has successfully booted /install/powerpc64/vmlinux from ubuntu
10.04 and 10.10 (Only to be thwarted by lack of veth and vscsi support (Bug
712188).
In seeing if the problem has been resolved in natty yet, I pulled the February
16th daily ISO build.
yaboot starts successfully.
Then I have the following failure.
boot: expert-powerpc64
Please wait, loading kernel...
/install/powerpc64/vmlinux: Not a valid ELF image
It would appear that the creation of vmlinux was slightly botched.
$ file /tmp/1*4/install/powerpc64/vmlinux
