Looks like a correction is in order, I just had a kernel panic while running the mainline kernel. While the problem always occurs while updating, it does not occur on every update, so it's hard to reproduce.
I've typed over the exact error messages I get on screen when it happens: [ 595.024498] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000ff00 [ 595.024498] [ 595.024760] drm_kms_helper: panic occurred, switching back to text console ** Tags removed: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-3.11.0-rc2 ** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-3.11.0-rc2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1202998 Title: kernel panic when updating To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1202998/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
