 Just an fyi, I've installed a hercules setup and can reproduce

This fixes the issue for me, can you verify?

 There's a suspicious similarity to [1] maybe?
 
 I won't be able to compile any kernels myself on this one, but I can test
 what you build.

Bug#562525: linux-2.6: [s390] Etch proposed-updates kernel boot failure

2009-12-25 Thread Frans Pop
Package: linux-2.6
Severity: serious
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-26etch1
Tags: d-i
X-Debbugs-CC: da...@debian-org

While testing the update for oldstable of debian-installer on my Hercules 
s390 emulator, I found that the new kernel fails to boot.
It fails to execute init after loading the initramfs.

The current oldstable version (2.6.18.dfsg.1-24) boots fine. And the 
current oldstable D-I (which has 2.6.18.dfsg.1-18) also boots fine.

Attached a diff between the boot messages. This diff is for an installed 
system, but I get the exact same Failed to execute /init error when 
booting D-I which suggests that the problem is not in the initrd but in 
the kernel.
The diff for the lines bringing up CPUs is mostly due to two messages 
getting mixed up. Probably not significant.
