Running Intrepid Alpha1 in a Virtualbox 1.6.2 guest. Host is Hardy.

linux-image-2.6.26-3-generic:
  Installed: 2.6.26-3.9
  Candidate: 2.6.26-3.9
  Version table:
 *** 2.6.26-3.9 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Expected result: System boots correctly.

Actual result: System fails to boot with kernel panic errors.

Errors on screen (see attached for screen shot):
Code: Bad EIP value.
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!

I can boot to linux-image-2.6.26-2-generic without any problems after the upgrade.
