Description James Laska 2008-09-09 16:40:05 UTC 
Description of problem:

F10-Alpha included:

modules/2.6.27-0.166.rc0.git8.fc10.ppc64/kernel/drivers/net/ibmveth.ko.gz

This driver is missing from the rawhide ramdisk.image.gz

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
 * kernel-2.6.27-0.314.rc5.git9.fc10.ppc64
 * anaconda-11.4.1.32-1.ppc

From the kernel changelog I see the following (http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=62338)

* Sun Jul 27 2008 Roland McGrath <roland>
- 2.6.26-git15
- Disable powerpc64 ibmveth driver, not compiling.

I wasn't able to find a bug already tracking this, but please advise if one exists.

triaged ... moving to ASSIGNED
Comment 2 Jarod Wilson 2008-09-09 19:21:07 UTC 
kernel-utils is long-dead... I should have dkl kill it in Fedora-land too, its already been nuked from rhel5... Changing component to kernel.

I've got the change queued up locally, going to do a test build on my ppc64 box, then commit, assuming ibmveth builds now.
Comment 3 Jarod Wilson 2008-09-09 20:30:56 UTC 
Built fine, flipping it back on now. Should reappear in kernel-2.6.27-0.318.rc5.git10.fc10 and later.
