> Does the panic stop happening if you boot back into -77? Yes. It's now running fine for more thant 3 hours now on -77.
Observe that we have upgraded more than one machine to -78, and only one machine has trouble. > Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream stable kernel? Ah, you have debianized builds for upstream kernels. I'm sure we can try that tomorrow.
