You can fix the "disk detection"-error yourself during installation (with whatever kernel version) by starting the installation shell when the error occurs and creating a directory in "/lib/modules/" with the name of your used kernel, i.e.

Code: Select all

mkdir /lib/modules/<name_of_your_kernel>

e.g.

Code: Select all

mkdir /lib/modules/4.2.0_A-EON_AMIGA_one_X1000_Nemo

Hi All,

I created installation instructions for installing ubuntu MATE 15.10 PowerPC on our AmigaONE X1000 today:

ubuntu_MATE_15.10_installation_instructions_A1-X1000.pdf

PLEASE test it.

If you find any mistakes in the manual, please let me know.

Cheers,

Christian

It seems the x server wasn't configured automatically on ubuntu MATE 15.10. You have to create manually a xorg.conf file.

Code: Select all

X -configure

After that copy the xorg.conf to /etc/X11.

Thank you for posting the dmesg output. I have figured out, that the firmware "TAHITI_vce.bin" is missing.

Code: Select all

[    0.933910] radeon 0000:01:00.0: Direct firmware load for radeon/TAHITI_vce.bin failed with error -2
[    0.933939] radeon 0000:01:00.0: radeon_vce: Can't load firmware "radeon/TAHITI_vce.bin"

This firmware isn't available in the Debian firmware package but I've found it on the following website: http://people.freedesktop.org/~agd5f/radeon_ucode/. I will try to add it to the kernel.
