Because of the changes in da874d90a, the Fedora 29 kernel doesn't
boot with the modified version of the Power9 CPU.  Let's set the
power8 CPU instead.

Looks fine to me as POWER9 support still lacks a skiboot update.

Thanks,

Nack.

Fedora *should* boot with Power9 on a pseries machine type, which I
think is what you're using here.  We need to fix that bug, rather than
cover it up.

AFAICT this is about a pseries boot, not a powernv boot.

Yes, it's a pseries machine.

yes. I realize that now. I got confused by the other thread. POWER9
should work on pseries. I agree.
