Hi,
I am trying to get a PowerMac 8600 to boot past 2.6.28.
I can boot 2.6.28 compiled with either 3.3.3 or 3.4.6. I can't get
2.6.28 to boot using 4.3.5. The 4.3.5 vmlinux has a section
'.text.unlikely' that the 3.4.6 version does not. Anyone know what
this might be?

For what it is worth, this section contains dump_stack, panic, and printk
Thanks!

Hi,
One more thing:
The last message printed is:
Driver 'sd' needs updating - please us bus_type methods
The mesh SCSI controller seems to successfully scan the bus. The next
message that a 3.4.6 compiled kernel prints are details about disk sda
(from SCSI disk driver?).
4.3.5 keyboard is dead.
Jog any thoughts?
Thanks!

Maybe the kernel already panic then serial cannot print the last messages
immediately. So after reset the target you can dump __log_buf from the u-boot
prompt to track this in detail.
