(Get the code!)
Well, after some days of work on the machine, I can say that at least jaunty alpha6 is stable (with all updates installed) IF keeping the 2.6.28-9 kernel running (I have modified the default target in grub menu.lst, just to be sure).
As of today, on the same system, starting with 2.6.28-11 leads to filesystem fault. And without having in hand a system rescue cd with filesystem repair tools (and being lucky on where the faults happened) the system gets unusable.
Note that on a desktop system at home (AsRock eSata motherboards, E6400 Core processor) the kernel 2.6.28-11 has not this problems (at least not so visible: tracker sometimes segfaults, but system does not crash and filesystem is preserved).
Seems something triggered by the hardware, but which is present latent in the codepath.
I am completely with BoomSie: the official release cannot live with this problems around.
