#84323 — Re: Bug#1033058: Booting mini.iso : kernel hangs on ppc64el

Hello,

I have reopened this bug as this problem even shows on ppc64el again
with the latest netinst daily build downloaded from [1]. I have tested
the image on an IBM 8247-42L inside a PowerKVM virtual machine.

Removing the patch again fixes the problem for me. However, at least on
big-endian ppc64, debian-installer does not accept any keyboard input
after the language menu shows up.

So, either the system has crashed at this point or there is something
wrong with the input device.

Adrian

Here is a short video which demonstrates the hang:

This was reproduced using the following installation image:

Thanks,

Hello John,

I'll work on this bug. I'll update my findings here in this bug thread. 
Currently, I have checked that on p9 this image is working fine with 
kernel > 6.8. I'll work on p8 issue.

Thanks and regards

Aditi

As this issue seems to be *caused* by the patch which fixed bug
#1033058, it should not be treated as being a reoccurrence of the same
bug.

I have opened bug #1085949 to track the new issue; please continue
discussion there.

Ben.
