Package: kernel-image-2.6-686
Version: 1:2.6.15-4
Severity: important
Running Debian Testing:
Kernel: kernel-image-2.6-686 2.6.15-4
On startup, I get a kernel NULL pointer dereference error, and the same
error on shutdown (reboot). On shutdown however it is immediately
followed by a seg fault, and i have to ctrl-D to enter into root, then
my machine stops responding.
Ethernet works fine however, but it seems to cause some crash in the
kernel. Here is ksymoops output from kern.log
