(I'm asking this question only because I'm curious about the problem I'm |
| 2 |
about to describe. I've already worked around it.) |

I updated the kernel in my gentoo virtualbox guest machine to 4.1.8 and |
| 5 |
got a kernel panic after rebooting the guest. (The panic was in the |
| 6 |
guest machine, not the host machine. Has anyone noticed how ambiguous |
| 7 |
our English language is?) |

Anyway, I rebooted the guest machine with vmlinuz.old (3.18.21) and |
| 10 |
then updated the guest to vanilla-sources-4.2.3 with no problems. |

(I omit several hours of confused reconfiguring/recompiling/rebooting |
| 13 |
because you really don't want to hear about them.) |

So, what is different or strange about kernel 4.1.8? Anyone have any |
| 16 |
problems with it on real hardware, or in other virtual environments |
| 17 |
like qemu, vmware, xen, etc? |
