Here's another incomplete purge of kernel files, which did not cause a crash (different file this time, modules.seriomap). This installation was on a hard disk, in a usb 2.0 enclosure.
Intrepid patched to date March 10, 2010 showed the manual kernel cleanup problem. Same file, modules.seriomap was left. No proprietary drivers in use. $ uname -a Linux laptop 2.6.27-17-generic #1 SMP Wed Jan 27 23:14:44 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux sudo apt-get purge `apt-cache pkgnames |fgrep 27-15` [sudo] password for xxx: Reading package lists...
