I have created a separate partition on my HD, installed Ubuntu 4.10 from the DVD, upgraded to the latest kernel 3.16.25 from the repository, and then installed kernel 3.18-rc5 according to the instructions on the web. The installation reports a known bug. I then reboot. I have no idea how to copy the page of output that results, including a kernel panic to some place where I can post it. The output includes:
