Hi list,

Since todays's update of the kernel (2.6.33.2 -> 2.6.33.3) my Dell inspiron 1012-9118 (new mini 10) netbook freezes on boot (after displaying "loading modules". I have to poweroff. It is an Atom N450 proc and an x86_64 Archlinux (up-to-date).

Has anyone a similar problem?

Likely the update breaks some external modules. Do you have any module packages installed that are not part of the kernel package? If yes, you can append "disablemodules=module1,module2" to the kernel commandline. These modules may have to be rebuilt - if you find some, tell us which ones they are. If you have no idea, appending "verbose" to the commandline may give more clues.
