Bug#376229: linux-image-2.6.17-1-k7: Intermittent panic during boot
Package: linux-image-2.6.17-1-k7
Version: 2.6.17-1
Severity: important
While booting this kernel, I've sometimes seen a panic early in the boot. The
screen didn't scroll back up so this is all I can grab:

<0> Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
I also sometimes have trouble with this kernel and udev in creating
/dev/input/mice. Without this, X doesn't work.
