Description Brendan Horan 2016-02-01 13:06:53 UTC
Every stable kernel after 3.10.95-gentoo on my IBM power4+ (9114-275) fails to boot in the exact same way.

See attached boot log. In this example I tested "3.14.58" but after testing all stable versions only 3.10.95 boots.

I plan to work though the kernel versions until I hit the exact version where it no longer boots.
However from a Gentoo point of view 3.10.95 is the last stable version that boots.

Reproducible: Always
