When booting my PowerBook Aluminum G4, I get a pop-up screen that says "The

This problem has been bisected to commit 31bfdb036f12 ("powerpc: Use
instruction emulation infrastructure to handle alignment faults"). I am
confident of the accuracy of the bisection.
Attached is the configuration.
Try with https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/813153/
(A selftest for the instruction emulation will make its way upstream
eventually...)
That patch does fix my problem. Thanks for the quick response.
