From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Epiphany/1.2.4 Description of problem: The supplied kernel config for the mac compiles in 8250 serial support, on the machine I'm using (an early blue & white G4), this causes the kernel to hang 9 times out of 10 just after it logs the 8250 startup line. Changing kernel-2.6.6-ppc.config to use: CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=m fixes the problem, but obviously stops use of any such device as a boot time console (are there any such Macs?) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.6-1.406 How reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. Hangs on boot 2. 3. Additional info:
