I can start looking at this in a few days, but If you would like to modify the current kexec-tools spec file to handle horms version, I certainly wont turn down the help. Thanks! I had a few moments so I made a rough pass at the new version. You can find the rpms here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=132708 Please test and verify they provide the functionality you need (testing on non-ppc architectures to confirm validity would be appreciated, as well as testing within the initscript framework, to avoid regressions). Please let me know the results as soon as you are able. Thanks! Just noted that the ppc64 build in koji died with the follwoing Errors: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/getfile?taskID=132710&name=build.log I'm looking at the assembly in v2wrap.S and it all looks correct according to the refernces I found, yet gcc is still complaining about the need for a comma where the @ shoud be. Is this a compiler error, or am I missing something. Nm, found the problem. Old spec file hack to fix some problem in the prior version. New rpms available here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=134990 The package ppc64 works fine at cell machines now. I tested and generated two dumps. I didn't test at x86 machines, I'm searching a fedora 7/8 here to test at x86. Thanks Ok, let me know when you have a confirmed dump on x86 machines, and I'll clean up the spec file and check it in. Thanks! Ok, test done with x86. Works well also. ok, commited to kexec-tools-1.102pre-1.fc8. Thanks! This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping As this bug is in MODIFIED, Fedora believes that a fix has been committed that resolves the problem listed in this bug report. If this is not the case, please re-open this report, noting the version of the package that you reproduced the bug against. Thanks for the report! |
