Re: Silly question...



Well, I don't want to cause any panic, but the last time I did an apt-get
update, apt-get-upgrade, my INIT was dying with an "unaligned access". I had
to get and compile the latest kernel (pa56, was pa20) to solve my problem.
So I hope you have upgraded your kernel as well ;)
