Bug#538357: Debian boot hangs after kernel upgrade
Package: kernel
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
After upgrading to kernel 2.6.26-2-amd64, boot hangs with a corruptd display (random coloured splotches across the top, and the initial BIOS options
about 2/3 of the way down the screen, in a small font - the Del for setup, F12 for boot options etc.). Keyboard is unresponsive, even Ctl-Alt-Del
has no effect. Hard reset is needed to restart system.
Thankfuklly, unlike some distros, the previous kernel is still operational, so I'm able to contimue using the machine.
