Comment 9 for bug 1374212

Chris,

I followed instructions in email below, installed latest upstream kernel
packages:

linux-headers-3.17.0-031700-generic_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_i386.deb
<http://kernel.ubuntu.com/%7Ekernel-ppa/mainline/v3.17-utopic/linux-headers-3.17.0-031700-generic_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_i386.deb>

linux-headers-3.17.0-031700_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_all.deb
<http://kernel.ubuntu.com/%7Ekernel-ppa/mainline/v3.17-utopic/linux-headers-3.17.0-031700_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_all.deb>
linux-image-3.17.0-031700-generic_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_i386.deb
<http://kernel.ubuntu.com/%7Ekernel-ppa/mainline/v3.17-utopic/linux-image-3.17.0-031700-generic_3.17.0-031700.201410060605_i386.deb>

Package installation was successful, unfortunately during rebooting I
received a kernel panic, "no init parameters". Unfortunately, I am not
able to proceed further, any guidance is appreciate.

Thanks,

Phil

It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested.
