James Hunt, I currently have a consistent way of reproducing this. First, I have both Chromium and Chrome installed as per below in a fresh+fully updated version of Trusty. Next I opened up Synaptic > typed in the Quick Filter textbox pepper > highlight pepperflashplugin-nonfree > click Visit Homepage and this consistently causes a _sbin_init.0.crash file to appear in var/crash.

For me, the WORKAROUND is just to simply not click the link as the problem has not been reproducible otherwise so far.

For an example errors crash of this, please see https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/341b7c12-8f2f-11e4-b173-fa163e525ba7 .

Let me know if this isn't enough information to reproduce and I can up the verbosity on my environment.
