I have compiled the RC 4 of the kernel 3.15 but it doesn't boot.

By the way, here is a very interesting thread about Lubuntu 14.04 on a Power Mac G5 Quad: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2221421

Oh wonderful and very interesting tread

Hi All,

I have tried to boot the RC 6 but without any success. I have sent my experience to the ppc mailing list.

Hope you succeed, and thank you for developing new kernel to the x1000 linux front.

Just for info: Linuxppc-dev mailing list: Boot problems with a PA6T board

Michael and I try to figure out which patch breaks our platform. We're working with the linux kernel git.
If this revision doesn't work, then we pick a new commit to test.
This is really a lot of work.

Just for info: I have tested the RC 7 and it doesn't boot, either.

Note: The kernel 3.15 doesn't boot and I have no more ideas to fix that problem. Therefore it won't released next week. I'll only update the kernel 3.13 series and the kernel 3.14 series, in the future.

Update: Linux on PowerPC Developers Mail List

I have fantastic news for you!

Darren has created a new patch for the kernel 3.15 and he has compiled the kernel 3.15.6. It boots without any problems. Thanks Darren.
We'll test the new kernel before we upload it.

Cool
