linux-image-2.6.38-7-powerpc fails in exactly the same way.

Will GRUB2 boot an old G4 machine now? It would be interesting to see if that would work where yaboot fails, but I'm not willing to risk further breakage right now. I can still boot using the old kernel. It looks like the upgrade process left a 2.6.35 in the yaboot menu.

Progress. Building kernel.org -rc6 kernel against the config-2.6.38-1-powerpc results in a booting kernel and usable machine (X seems broken, but it is with the Ubuntu 2.6.38-1-powerpc kernel). So it's something in the config changes?

The somewhat static (no-initrd) kernel.org -rc6 kernel boots, at least as far as losing a fight with Plymouth / udev. But it does boot, which is more that the Ubuntu variants do. Next steps: Build k.org rc6 using config-2.6.38-5-powerpc for 'make oldconfig'. If that fails to boot, then use config-2.6.38-1-powerpc. Will probably take a couple of days given the time to compile and the time I'm available to play with the results. -jh -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/714165 Title: natty, ppc kernel linux-image-2.6.38-2-powerpc fails to boot -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi jh, Please be sure to confirm this issue exists with the latest development release of Ubuntu. ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/ . If the issue remains, please run the following command from a Terminal (Applications-Accessories-Terminal). It will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report. apport-collect -p linux 714165 Also, if you could test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results. Thanks in advance. [This is an automated message.
