Description Bernard Johnson 2012-06-25 05:46:01 UTC
Description of problem:
kernel-kirkwood-3.4.2-4.fc17.armv5tel does not boot.  The previously available kernel kernel-kirkwood-3.4.2-3.fc17.armv5tel boots just fine.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-kirkwood-3.4.2-4.fc17.armv5tel

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Update kernel
2. Reboot
3.
  
Actual results:
Only text printed on console:
Starting kernel ...                                                             
                                                                                
Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.                                
   

Expected results:
A bootable kernel.

Reopening

Broken again in kernel-kirkwood-3.4.4-5.fc17.armv5tel.

Comment 3 Bernard Johnson 2012-07-21 11:13:23 UTC
Working again in kernel-kirkwood-3.4.6-2.fc17.armv5tel:

Comment 4 Bernard Johnson 2012-08-06 14:47:48 UTC
Broken again but in a different way for 3.5.0-2.fc17.armv5tel.kirkwood.  Strangely, the system clock is set to a different date each boot.  I know without a RTC, the value will be meaningless, but I would have expected the equivalent of all high bits or all low bits.

From a boot of a working 3.3.6-3.fc17.armv5tel.kirkwood:

[   19.311948] drivers/rtc/hctosys.c: unable to open rtc device (rtc0)

Comment 6 Bernard Johnson 2012-09-03 19:06:19 UTC
Also hangs when setting system clock on 3.5.2-3.fc17.armv5tel.kirkwood.

[   20.056030] drivers/rtc/hctosys.c: unable to open rtc device (rtc0)

This is running an a PogoPlug-v2 arcNumber 2998, but also test booting with arcNumber 2997 (sheevaplug). I have spare hardware at my disposal and willing to test binaries.

No issue with GA release 3.4.2-3.fc17.armv5tel.kirkwood

Platform is Sheeva Plug 003-SP1001, system on usb stick.

Switching back to 3.4.2-3.fc17.armv5tel.kirkwood boots OK.
