Install FC4 test2 on PPC - Dual Proc G5?
[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]
I just downloaded the fedora core test2
for ppc. I rebooted my PPC Dual G5. I was prompted by yaboot
and hit enter to except the default kernel "linux." The
kernel starts to load and then dies. I shutdown the machine and started
it back up and at yaboot, typed linux nofb. It started to load again
and then died again. Here is the output when it stops booting:
opening display /pci@0,fd000000/NVDA,Parent@10/NVDA,Display-B@xxxx
ok

starting cpu /cpus/PowerPC,G5...failed:

Welcome to OPen Firmware, the system
time and date is: 16:49:16 04/21/2005
To continue booting, type "mac-boot"
and press return.
To shut down, type "shut-down"
and press return.
Release keys to continue!
Any suggestions? Is this a problem
with booting dual proc g5's? Is there any way to disable SMP with
a kernel parameter that can be passed so that I can install the system?
Is there an SMP kernel available to boot? Is the dual proc
the issue I am having or is it something else?
Thanks,
Joe
