Here is Lubuntu developmental on kernel RC8 on a ext4 partition.

A question about the kernel panic issues with a btrfs partition - do you think this procedure can be used on the X1000?

Ernsteiswuerfel has found a solution because of the btrfs issues today.

I did some more research and finally found the correct parameter to boot into a btrfs /.

Code: Select all

image=/vmlinux
label=Linux
read-only
root=/dev/sda7
initrd=/initrd.img
append="rootflags=subvol=@ radeon.agpmode=-1"

Running btrfs without issues so far, I even turned lzo filesystem compression on. AFAIK many issues with btrfs have been resolved with kernel > 4.0 and btrfs-progs > 4.0 (https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page#News).

It would be convenient if the yaboot installer-script from the ISO checks if btrfs is used as root-filesystem and adds

Code: Select all

append="rootflags=subvol=@"

to /etc/yaboot.conf automatically.

Srtest, could you add rootflags=subvol=@ to the boot arguments, please?

Hi All,

A new bug fix release of kernel 4.1 is available.

Download: vmlinux-4.1.7-AMIGA_one_X1000.tar.bz2

New:

• Wacom Intuos/Graphire tablet support (USB)
• https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kerne ... ags/v4.1.7

ChangeLog: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel ... eLog-4.1.7

It also includes:

• KVM_BOOK3S_64_PR
  
  Support running guest kernels in virtual machines on processors without using hypervisor mode in the host, by running the guest in user mode (problem state) and emulating all privileged instructions and registers.
  This is not as fast as using hypervisor mode, but works on machines where hypervisor mode is not available or not usable, and can emulate processors that are different from the host processor, including emulating 32-bit processors on a 64-bit host.
• Mac-on-Linux support
• network support for AROS hosted
• support for 4 serial ports
• Bluetooth USB dongle support
• kernel tracing with ftrace
• ubuntu MATE 15.04 and 15.10 support
• Debian 8 support
• Btrfs support
• systemd support
• Linux kernel icon for OS4.1 by Tommysammy

Cheers,

Christian
