I hope it is not. Its built from the same kernel source, but the one in the
boot-floppies supports GVP SCSI whereas the no-gvp-scsi kernel image does
not support GVP SCSI. The numbers are identical, built on the same machine,
but I hope the kernel images themselves are different (otherwise people with
GVP SCSI cards could not install with these boot-floppies).

 ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/ksymoops/ 
I think it has a readme and there might even be a debian package, but I
think its recommended to build it yourself. Its pretty straightforward to
use, if you search the list archive you might find how I learned to use it
:-)

ksymoops 2.3.3 on m68k 2.2.10.  Options used
     -v vmlinux (specified)
     -k /proc/ksyms (default)
     -l /proc/modules (default)
     -o /lib/modules/2.2.10/ (default)
     -m /boot/System.map-2.2.10 (specified)

It needs the oops file of cause (and I should update my ksymoops...)
Catch the output and send that here.
