Description of problem: I'm trying to use kexec-tools on a PS3 running Fedora 12. kexec -l /boot/vmlinux-2.6.32.2 --append="ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_ps3-lv_root" --initrd=/boot/initramfs-2.6.32.2.img get_memory_ranges(): Unsupported platform Could not get memory layout This is because this function is not implemented for ppc, but only for ppc64. There is not kexec-tools.ppc64 in the repositories. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kexec-tools-2.0.0-28.fc12.ppc.rpm How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. kexec -l /boot/vmlinuz-XXXX --append="ro root=/dev/mapper/vg_ps3-lv_root" --initrd=/boot/initramfs-XXX replace XXX with the name of one of your installed kernels. Actual results: get_memory_ranges(): Unsupported platform Could not get memory layout Expected results: It should work. Additional info: The version for ppc64 should fix this problem.
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=142635 Koji is certainly building it. I expect its not in the rpositories because of some ppc64 multilib issue. I expect you;ll have to download and install it manually.
