------- Comment From cdead...@us.ibm.com 2016-07-21 13:15 EDT------- ==== State: Working by: tgrobeck on 21 July 2016 12:07:44 ==== I have tested that with the 4.4.0-31 kernel (which I am told has the patch), an adapter in slot C9 will not cause the system to boot up to the operating system.
Cold IPLed the system twice with an adapter in the P1-C9 slot, and the system IPLed to the operating system both times. root@x1517p1:~# uname -a Linux x1517p1 4.4.0-31-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 13 00:05:18 UTC 2016 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux root@x1517p1:~# cat /etc/os-release NAME="Ubuntu" VERSION="16.04.1 LTS (Xenial Xerus)" ID=ubuntu ID_LIKE=debian PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS" VERSION_ID="16.04" HOME_URL="http://www.ubuntu.com/"; SUPPORT_URL="http://help.ubuntu.com/"; BUG_REPORT_URL="http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/"; UBUNTU_CODENAME=xenial -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1602785 Title: FlashGT - In Tuleta 8284-22A with card in card slot P1-C9, system Fails to boot operating system Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in linux source package in Yakkety: In Progress Bug description: Placed card in card slot P1-C9 After powering chassis on, system comes up to Petitboot and attempts to load operating system.

Can Canonical please include it in 16.04 kernel? https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/642920/ To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1602785/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
