[Bug 1066435] Re: powerpc: "Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!"

 

[PPC] I performed the following without encountering the bug:

1. Successfully booted the 20130818 Live iso. via USB flash drive.

2. Successfully performed a manual install from the 20130818 Live iso
and successfully rebooted.

3. Successfully performed a "guided--use entire disk" install from the
20130820 iso and successfully rebooted.

I used a usb flash drive for all tests. The kernel is showing as
3.11.0-0 smp powerpc. The test hardware is Powermac G4 MDD FW800 model.

Title:
  powerpc: "Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!"

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in “linux” source package in Saucy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  After what appears to be a completed installation trying to boot end
  in the following statement "Fixing recursive fault but reboot is
  needed!".  Rebooting ends the same with scroll of text and enability
  to get to terminal or other. This occurred while doing real hardware
  iso testing on  the 20121014 Lubuntu alternate powerpc iso doing qa
  iso-testing.

  Since I do have another clean installed desktop on the computer I might be able to get some of the logs.
