I think this was a generic issue in the installer code when I created the images. I think someone reported similiar problems with the hppa installer too. I didn't changed anything specific for alpha. So, maybe building new installer images might fix it, but right now this is not my top-priority. > > Another thing to note, there is no xfs support in kernel, so I had to > > choose ext4 but xfs is my preferred. > > Is that because the module is not built, or because the module does > not load because of relocation errors? It's the relocation isse. dmesg reports: module xfs: Relocation (type 4) overflow vs xfs_ilock It would be nice if this can get fixed someday. Other than that I noticed that I'm unable to boot the linux-4.0 debian kernel on my machine. Anyone has observed that too? aboot messages: aboot> b vmlinuz-4.0.0-2-alpha-generic ro root=/dev/sda3 console=ttyS0 aboot: loading uncompressed vmlinuz-4.0.0-2-alpha-generic... aboot: loading compressed vmlinuz-4.0.0-2-alpha-generic... aboot: Can't load kernel.
