[Cbe-oss-dev] kexec troubles on ps3

[Stefan Assmann]

Hi all,

I'm having trouble with kexecing a kernel on opensuse. Strangely kexec
works from inside petitboot, but it fails to kexec another kernel from
within opensuse.

scenario:
petitboot: kexec 2.6.25.5 (opensuse) works
opensuse: kexec 2.6.25.5 (same kernel as from petitboot) fails

kexec version in both cases is kexec-tools-testing 20080324

There's no particular error message given after kexec -e.

I ran 'strace kexec -e' and it hangs at
reboot(LINUX_REBOOT_MAGIC1, LINUX_REBOOT_MAGIC2, 0x45584543 /* LINUX_REBOOT_CMD_??? */

Any clues?

  Stefan
