           Summary: following Yast online update of kernel system hung
                    during reboot
           Product: SUSE Linux 10.1
           Version: Final
          Platform: x86-64
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Major
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Kernel
        AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: pmmt.inc@xxxxxxxxx
         QAContact: qa@xxxxxxx


following a Yast online update of the kernel the system hung during a reboot. 
it appears to be a kernel panic, but I don't have any details.  this has
happened twice.  the first time I upgraded the kernel and a couple of
additional packages.  (I was able to restore the system with a knoppix liveCD
and a backup of the root and /var partitions.)  the second time this happened I
upgraded only the kernel.

the kernel upgrade was:
Patch:
    Kernel Update for SUSE Linux 10.1
    Source Timestamp: 2006/12/13 09:34:50 UTC
    CVS Branch: SLES10_GA_BRANCH
packages:
        kernel-smp
        kernel-source
        mkinitrd
        udev

I'm not in a big hurry to make my system inoperable again, but if it would help
I would be willing to reinstall the patch, if you can provide me with
instructions on how to get the information you need. btw, the hardware is
x86-64 as previously specified, but it's dual core (if it makes any
difference).
