[NEWS] Fedora 37 has arrived!
ClassicHasClass:
What DKnoto said. Same thing bites me on every update. Oddly, though, only on the T2 -- the Blackbird doesn't seem affected.
DKnoto:
This script gets the Petitboot version number from a file like this:
--- Code: ---cat /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/ibm,firmware-versions/petitboot
--- End code ---
and expects this string to be of the form, for example, 1.8.0 and gets something like this:
--- Code: ---cat /sys/firmware/devicetree/base/ibm,firmware-versions/petitboot
0ed84c0-p94177c1
--- End code ---
ClassicHasClass:
Right, that's this bug, reported by yours truly: https://bugzilla.stage.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1921479
It should be fixed, but on the T2 at least, it doesn't seem to be.

--- Quote from: DKnoto on December 19, 2022, 10:35:17 am ---In order for petitboot to see the new kernels you must run the following commands after the update:
--- Code: ---$ sudo grub2-mkconfig > /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
--- End code ---
This situation is due to an error in the /usr/lib/kernel.d/99-grub-mkconfig.install script on lines 28 and 29.
The script expects the Pettitboot version in Num1.Num2.Num3 format and reads the values in CRC1-CRC2 format.

This worked a treat, thank you! Once I'm done with some holiday traveling, I will start writing down some of what I've learned in getting Fedora to go my way. Periodically it wants to take several minutes to shut down, and I haven't had any luck looking at console output to see what's making it spin its wheels... but if that's the only wrinkle I run into, I think I'm okay with it.
ClassicHasClass:
And actually it did it on the Blackbird today when I tried to update it. So I think something regressed.
