But I did try to do a git log between your last known good commit and bad commit. The output was just the bad commit. [dzickus@ihatethathostname upstream]$ git log --oneline 93736624635235cc5372ffca6d62816d02170724..e40b17208b6805be50ffe891878662b6076206b9 e40b172 x86: Move notify_die from nmi.c to traps.c [dzickus@ihatethathostname upstream]$ Though a git log on the bad commit showed other commits I thought would have popped out before the intersection with the good commit. Just for my sanity could you do a 'git revert e40b17208b6805be50ffe891878662b6076206b9' and try that kernel. I would think it would still fail, but if it does boot then I need to do some serious head scratching. Cheers, Don
