** Description changed: - Both HiFive Unleashed and HiFive Unmatched bootloaders seek for the same - UUIDs to load the next stage bootloader: the current name makes partitions - on Unmatched board appear as 'Unleashed'. - - Fix that by removing the 'Unleashed' part of the current name so that it - fits both. - - The attached debdiff contains the patch that was merged upstream - (https://github.com/karelzak/util- - linux/commit/10fd91d389497d8be435cc66abbdeb2eb6ea2f07). + [Impact] + + Both HiFive Unleashed and HiFive Unmatched bootloaders seek for the same + UUIDs to load the next stage bootloader: the current name makes partitions + on Unmatched board appear as 'Unleashed'. + + This issue gives the feeling that the Ubuntu RISC-V images made specifically + for those 2 boards were assembled in a rushed manner. + + The attached patch fixes this by removing the 'Unleashed' part of the current + name so that it fits both, it was build againt all architectures here: + https://launchpad.net/~alexghiti/+archive/ubuntu/riscv/+sourcepub/12783067/+listing-archive-extra + + [Test Plan] + + 1.
