Bug#299731: kernel-image-2.6-686-smp: SMP kernel causes krenele panic during boot
Package: kernel-image-2.6-686-smp
Version: 101
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
Tested on both testing and unstable. On my (old) dual-P3 system (Asus CUV4X-D), booting the SMP kernels for 2.6.8 or 2.6.10 causes a hand on boot,
with the message "Kernel panic: attempted to kill init!" shortly after printing out some IDE bud information. Non-SMP kernels boot normally (though,
of course, without SMP support). Adding "noapic" or "acpi=no" to the boot line in either LILO or GRUB makes a difference to this problem.
If it helps, here is the output of lspci:
