Problem on Instalation of Debian Lenny

Rate this Message:
Hi Guys, Well, I trying install Debian Lenny on System z on z/VM. The first attempt was: I downloaded the essentials files from the official mirror ftp server (ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/main/installer-s390/current/images/generic/) but, the message "[17179570.468526] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!" was displayed and the installation stop. (the file is attached) Very well.. The next attempt was: I downloaded the essentials files from other release of lenny (the first release announced in 01/23/2009) (ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/main/installer-s390/20090123+b1/images/generic/) and the basic modules not found (the message bellow is displayed) âââââââââââââââââ⤠[!!] Download installer components âââââââââââââââââââ â â â No kernel modules were found. This probably is due to a mismatch â â between the kernel used by this version of the installer and the â â kernel version available in the archive. â â â â If you're installing from a mirror, you can work around this problem â â by choosing to install a different version of Debian. The install â â will probably fail to work if you continue without kernel modules. â â â â Continue the install without loading kernel modules? â â â â <Go Back> <Yes> <No> â â â âââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââââ Well again not worked the installation.. I really need one help about this problem.. I have installed the Debian Etch a while ago, but today this version is not supported in mirrors, I did not find any mirror what work fine with this version.

If I install the Lenny kernel on an already installed Hercules system (running unstable) I also get the panic, so it clearly is a kernel issue, not an installer issue. There has been one s390 specific patch included in the latest kernel: * [s390] Fix __div64_31 for CONFIG_MARCH_G5 (Closes: #511334) but that patch was very well tested, including on my Hercules system, so I would be surprised if that was the cause. But it will definitely need to be investigated, but this will take time. I'll see what I can do myself.

Etch should still work. But I've just tried it and unfortunately there's a problem there as well.

There already is a 64-bit kernel available (just install the -s390x kernel image package) in past and current Debian releases. The kernel team has just dropped support for 31-bit systems in unstable [1], so Debian Installer will start using and installing a 64-bit kernel by default for the next stable release (Squeeze). Whether this will also result in changing the userland to 64-bit I don't know.
