           Summary: kernel-ps3 hangs at illegal instruction
           Product: openSUSE 11.1
           Version: RC 1
          Platform: PowerPC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Critical
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Kernel
        AssignedTo: sassmann@xxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: sassmann@xxxxxxxxxx

kernel-ps3 kills init because of an illegal instruction early during boot.

RPC:Registered udp transport module.
RPC:Registered tcp transport module.
Freeing unused  kernel memory: 176k freed
init has generated signal 4 but has no handler for it
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

The reason for this is that the kernel tries to execute an ALTIVEC instruction
but the config has not set CONFIG_ALTIVEC.

Not sure why the kernel tries to execute ALTIVEC instructions at this point.

Enabling ALTIVEC in config file.
