Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686 Version: 2.6.26-8 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
My Acer Aspire 7720G laptop doesn't boot with this kernel image, since I did an apt-get dist-upgrade yesterday evening. Before that, i.e. until minutes before the apt-get dist-upgrade, the previous release of 2.6.26-1 which was active on this laptop worked fine. The kernel loads from disk (through LILO) and displays its usual lines of ............... then goes to a new line with the blinking cursor, but never starts. Then just before the "BIOS data check complete" message (IIRC) it hangs, without displaying anything else, especially not this particular message.
