OOPS during boot with linux-image-2.6.32-20-generic-pae

[Andreas Hasenack]

It was booting fine with 2.6.32-19-generic-pae, and that's in fact what I'm using now. But as soon as I boot with -20, it OOPSes. I can't see much on the screen, it has a large font and the interesting bits are already way up and away. The machine is frozen, I have to power cycle it.

I see on IRC that other people have the same problem, maybe this is a duplicate already, but I didn't find it when searching launchpad.

I hope "ubuntu-bug" collected enough information.

Similar issue on my Thinkpad T400 as well. Installed the newer kernel twice on 10.04 beta 2. both times there was a kernel oops on reboot.

However, I can confirm that I did not have any issues installing the updates on a generic desktop workstation at work where the installation went smoothly.

Seems to be a thinkpad issue?
