[Bug 1564219] Re: Ubuntu Xenial Installer hangs after a couple of minutes on Gigabyte MP30-AR0 (APM X-Gene 1)

2016-05-22 Thread Ronald Maas
Successfully able to install and start Ubuntu 16.04 on the MP30-AR0
board using the following work-around. Note a serial console is
required:

1) After starting the installer using UEFI shell command
FS1:\EFI\BOOT\BOOTAA64.EFI, select 'Install' menu item and click 'e' to
invoke the Grub editor

2) Change the Grub menu entry:

setparams 'Install'

set background_color=black
linux/linux acpi=off clk_ignore_unused console=ttyS0,115200 --- quiet 
clk_ignore_unused console=ttyS0,115200
initrd   /initrd.gz

3) Type Ctrl-X to boot the kernel and start the installation process

4) After the installation completes, reboot the system. Now UEFI should
automatically boot the kernel, and after a few error messages, the
familiar Linux logon prompt should appear

[Bug 1564219] Re: Ubuntu Xenial Installer hangs after a couple of minutes on Gigabyte MP30-AR0 (APM X-Gene 1)

2016-05-22 Thread Ronald Maas
I tested with latest Xenial arm64 Mini ISO from http://ports.ubuntu.com
/ubuntu-ports/dists/xenial/main/installer-
arm64/current/images/netboot/mini.iso (dated 20-Apr-2016) and the same
issue occurs again. Freeze occurs roughly 1 - 10 seconds after I started
the installer.

When I passed kernel parameter acpi=off, this seems to resolve the
freeze issue. Together with kernel parameters console=ttyS0,115200 and
clk_ignore_unused I was able to finish the complete installation
procedure.
