Package: linux-image-2.6.25-2-amd64
Severity: critical
Justification: causes serious data loss
There seems to be a major memory/file corruption issue in 2.6.25.
I have tried running it after my system had been running on 2.6.24-1-amd64
for quite some time without any issues, but after a few days various
programs would start to dump core spontaneously.

I also noticed file and filesystem corruption starting to pop up in
various places.
Eg. an 'apt-get update' would generate a package file wth various parts
corrupted.
This is on a twin dual-core Xeon machine with 4Gb of RAM and using the
AMD64 version.
I also tried the 32-bit 2.6.25 version under a KVM virtual machine, but
it also crashed after a few days of runing.
Since switching back to 2.6.24 the system is stable once more and also
the virtual machine in the KVM works fine with a 2.6.24.
No other changes were made to the system. Just purge 2.6.25, reboot into
2.6.24 and it's OK.

bug contains no info to track it, presumed bad hardware.
