Have you tried with the final 2.6.28 kernel?

[Comment 2 Tobias Klausmann (RETIRED) 2008-12-25 16:28:29 UTC]

Yes, of course. Same error.

[Comment 3 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) 2009-01-01 12:59:25 UTC]

Thanks, will watch upstream bug

[Comment 4 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) 2009-01-11 11:00:51 UTC]

Please try applying this patch to 2.6.28

Created attachment 178030 [details]
2.6.28+patches panic on boot

The kernel now compiles (after adding the irq_srm.c fix, too). Unfortunately, it panics on boot (see attached file).

[Comment 6 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) 2009-01-11 12:42:24 UTC]

That is unlikely to be related to this patch, you are just hitting it because this is the first time you have been able to boot 2.6.28. Please file a different bug for that if we don't manage to fix it on IRC.
