I did an upgrade from squeeze to unstable on my test NSLU2. During the upgrade, the kernel was upgraded to 2.6.38-1-ixp4xx (Debian 2.6.38-1) (did you specially hold the kernel version back at 2.6.32-5-ixp4xx?). Booting fails with the following messages: Begin: Running /scripts/init-bottom ... done. /init: exec: line 303: run-init: Unknown error 7402476 [ 8.917709] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
