Debian kernels 6.9 and higher fail to boot on most PowerPC 32-bit systems. These kernels have CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP=y set. This yields the message: > Error: You can't boot a kdump kernel from OF! See discussion on the debian-powerpc list: * Initial report: https://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2024/07/msg00001.html * Verification that CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP is indeed the problem: https://lists.debian.org/debian-powerpc/2024/08/msg00018.html This occurs due to a change upstream, that makes CRASH_DUMP enabled by default. We're working on fixing this upstream: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/T/ In the meantime, Debian's kernel config should explicitly disable CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP on 32-bit powerpc. -- Package-specific info: ** Kernel log: boot messages should be attached Error: You can't boot a kdump kernel from OF! ** Model information revision : 2.9 (pvr 000c 0209) platform : PowerMac model : PowerMac3,1 machine : PowerMac3,1 motherboard : PowerMac3,1 MacRISC MacRISC2 Power Macintosh Device Tree model: PowerMac3,1 ** PCI devices: 00:0b.0 Host bridge [0600]: Apple Inc.
