Public bug reported: Hi!
I was bitten a known bug that causes hard crash of the kernel on every boot when I was testing my new IPv6 enabled setup. It's caused by a memory corruption bug in connection tracking code and triggered when having a bridged network interface having an IPv6 address assigned and some firewall rules applied (I'm using shorewall6) and a KVM based virtual machines are being started. The patch is quite simple, would it be possible to get this included in the karmic kernel? It's already fixed in lucid since 2.6.32-15.21 as it was fixed in the upstream 2.6.32-stable.
