Package: linux-source-4.19 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Trying to boot the buster installer inside qemu-system-mips64el with my setup kernel panics almost instantly with the message "No memory area to place a bootmap bitmap". Using the incantation: qemu-system-mips64el -M malta -cpu 5KEc -drive file=mips64el_buster_disk,format=raw -m 2048 -nographic -no-reboot -net nic,model=virtio-net-pci -net user -kernel mips64el_buster/installer_old/vmlinux-4.19.0-5-5kc-malta -initrd mips64el_buster/installer_old/initrd.gz -append "console=ttyS0" it panics, while the same with mips64el_disk and the 5.10.0-6-5kc-malta kernel+initrd from bullseye works fine. I first tried this with the 4.19.0-17-5kc-malta from 10.10, then I tried it with the older installer kernel+initrd to see if it was a regression from earlier buster or e.g. stretch. (As you can see from how I'm reporting it, it appears to have been broken all buster.) - Rich
