Package: yaboot Severity: normal
$ qemu-system-ppc -m 1024 -net nic,model=e1000 -net tap,ifname=tap0,script=no,downscript=no ppc.img -cdrom debian-504-powerpc-netinst.iso -boot d -nographic Writes the OFW banner on the standard output and does nothing, Running the installed system with -boot c gives a quik prompt. As I understand it the install CD uses yaboot and I could not find anything about configuring yaboot for use with serial port in the docs so I guess yaboot cannot do it or should do it automagically and it is broken. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (900, 'stable'), (700, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (110, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.33-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
