Sorry we haven't been able to help you yet. Looking over the previous report, it sounds like data is being corrupted between the hard drive and memory. Normally I would think this was a hardware fault, but you say that the system continues to work with the kernel from 'squeeze'. So I suspect the hard drive interface is being set up wrongly in the newer kernel version. Can you send boot logs from the working kernel and the current kernel? Ben.
