I'm seeing a boot regression on a Power9 pseries LPAR. The system hangs very early during boot after: Quiescing Open Firmware ... Booting Linux via __start() ...That is strange. not sure where to look at without any logs. Is it a specific config that fails or this specific LPAR that fails?Is this a specific lpar or all power9 pseries are exhibiting same behaviour?Its specific to a lpar.quoted
Can you try the below fix?[...] I tired this fix, but issue still persists.
This regression made it to my list of tracked regression -- and it looks like this stalled. Is that the case? Or was this resolved meanwhile? Ciao, Thorsten
