Description Michael Meeks 2008-05-21 09:28:11 UTC 
I upgraded my kernel to factory as of last night; ran mkinitrd manually; re-booted this morning and it panics on boot.

My screen says [ having removed the vga=... kernel parameter ]:

esume=/dev/md0 splash=silent
   [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x3000, size=0x217578]
initrd /initrd
   [Linux-initrd @ 0x37a8c000, 0x5634da bytes]

Probing EDD (edd=off to disable)... ok

Decompressing Linux... done.
Booting the kernel.



[cursor blinking ]

and at the bottom of the screen:

Kernel alive
kernel direct mapping tables up to 100000000 @ 8000-d000
PANIC: early exception 0e rip 10:300 error 10 cr2 300

When I get the machine back; I'll let you know the kernel version etc.
Comment 1 Michael Meeks 2008-05-21 09:32:55 UTC 
The failsafe kernel boots - thankfully; /boot/vmlinuz points to vmlinuz-2.6.25.4-2-debug from kernel-debug-2.6.25.4-2 which has head RPM changelog of:

* Fri May 16 2008 gregkh@suse.de
- Update config files.
- patches.drivers/usb-add-option-hso-driver.patch: USB: add
...

downgrading prio., since (presumably) only applies to the debug kernel.
