Re: (X)(L)ubuntu (MATE) 16.04 LTS
Hi All,
I created an installation initial ramdisk for the installation of ubuntu MATE 16.04 with the stable longterm kernel 4.1.17.
PLEASE test the new installation initial ramdisk.
Cheers,
Christian
I created an installation initial ramdisk for the installation of ubuntu MATE 16.04 with the stable longterm kernel 4.1.17.
- Download and extract the kernel image, vmlinux-4.1.17
Download: vmlinux-4.1.17-AmigaONE_X1000.tar.bz2 - Download the new installation initial ramdisk. I suggest to download it with a right click on the link and then with the menu point "Save target as" or something like this.
Download: initrd-4.1.17-1.ubuntu16.04-ppc64.gz - Copy them to a USB pen drive or to the CF card
- Turn on the AmigaONE X1000 and press F to boot to enter CFE prompt. Insert the
USB pen drive. - You can boot the installer using the commands below:
- From a USB pen drive:
From the CF card:
Code: Select all
CFE> ramdisk –z –addr=0x24000000 –fatfs usbdisk0:initrd-4.1.17-1.ubuntu16.04-ppc64.gz
Code: Select all
CFE> ramdisk –z –addr=0x24000000 –fatfs cf0:initrd-4.1.17-1.ubuntu16.04-ppc64.gz
Code: Select all
CFE> setenv bootargs "root=/dev/ramdisk"
- From a USB pen drive:
From the CF card:
Code: Select all
CFE> boot -elf -noints -fatfs usbdisk0:vmlinux-4.1
Code: Select all
CFE> boot -elf -noints -fatfs cf0:vmlinux-4.1
- From a USB pen drive:
- Select Language
- Select Your Locatation
- Detect Keyboard Layout. Select No and Pick from the list
- Configure Network
- Enter Hostname
- Select the Ubuntu Archive Mirror Country - [it is configured for the UK]
- Select the Ubuntu archive mirror "ports.ubuntu.com"
- Leave the HTTP Proxy parameter blank
- When prompted that no kernel modules were found select Yes to continue
without loading them. - The installer components will be retrieved from the Ubuntu mirror [this will take a
long time] - Enter your Full Name
- Enter your username for your account
- Enter your password and confirm
- Select No to Encrypt your home directory
- Confirm your time zone
- When prompted for module dm-mod leave the parameter blank and select
continue - Click Continue at the warning of "Software RAID not available"
- Click Continue at the warning of "Logical Volume Manager not available"
- You can now partition your disk
You must exercise caution when modifying your partition tables! - The base system will now be retrieved from the mirror site and installed
- Select “Install security updates automatically"
- At the software selection screen you will be asked to select which *buntu
flavour(s) you would like to install. You can install as many as you like. To install
ubuntu MATE arrow down to the “Ubuntu MATE desktop” option and press the
space bar to mark the option. Now press return to continue. - The additional packages required to install the full desktop will be retrieved and
installed. - [this will take some time to complete depending on the speed of your
internet connection ] - At “Continue without boot loader” take note of your root partition.
- Select Yes to set confirm the system clock is set as UTC.
- Select Continue to finish the installation and reboot!
- Press F to boot to enter CFE prompt. Remove if necessary and re-insert the USB
pen drive containing the vmlinux-4.1 kernel. Enter the following commands replacing
the root partition (sdb9) with the ID of the partition where you installed ubuntu
MATE.From a USB pen drive:Code: Select all
CFE> setenv bootargs "root=/dev/sdb9"
From the CF card:Code: Select all
CFE> boot -elf -noints -fatfs usbdisk0:vmlinux-4.1
Code: Select all
CFE> boot -elf -noints -fatfs cf0:vmlinux-4.1
- Later, you could copy the kernel vmlinux-4.1 to the CF card and configure a CFE
menu entry.Code: Select all
CFE> setenv -p MENU_2_LABEL "ubuntu MATE 16.04 with kernel 4.1"
Code: Select all
CFE> setenv -p MENU_2_COMMAND 'set pmu -astate=A4 ; setenv bootargs "root=/dev/sdb9 quiet ro splash" ; boot -elf -noints -fatfs cf0:vmlinux-4.1'

Stanglnator has successfully installed ubuntu MATE 16.04 PowerPC with the new installation initial ramdisk on his AmigaONE X1000 today.
Link: X1000 Linux-Thread -- os4welt.de
He had to copy the xorg.conf from his old installation to /etc/X11.
