Description Suloev Dmitry 2012-12-12 09:15:12 UTC

I compile linux 3.7.0 on my machine and try boot it using kexec:
1. switch to single mode (rc single);
2. mount /boot parion (mount -oro /boot);
3. load new kernel into memory (kexec -l /boot/kernel-3.7.0 --reuse-cmdline);
4. exec new kernel (kexec -e).
After last command I see how system boots and after starting X I can see only blank black screen with "_" in top left corner.
I don't have this problem with other drivers. Only with nouveau
