Package: kernel-source-2.6.10 Severity: normal I use a number of Mini-ITX systems as diskless workstations. These boot over Ethernet using PXELINUX. They work fine with kernel 2.6.8 but as soon as I upgraded one to 2.6.10 I found I couldn't reboot it without turning the power right off. You actually have to disconnect the power lead - it's not enough for the board just to go to its power-off state.
What happens when you switch on is the BIOS doesn't seem to be able to make head or tail of the state of the ethernet interface and exits without attempting to boot. This happens 100% of the time if the previous boot used a 2.6.10 kernel. It doesn't happen if the previous kernel used was 2.6.8 or earlier. I note that the VIA-Rhine driver has had a "Massive clean-up" between kernels 2.6.8 and 2.6.10.
