Package: linux-image-3.2.0-1-kirkwood
Version: 3.2.2-1
Problem: This kernel package, when installed on many Kirkwood machines,
including the Dockstar, does not boot. Various users have noticed this,
and it seems likely that it could be related to compression of the kernel
image into the uImage file. Notably, an uncompressed vmlinux.bin (from
the same build/source) relabeled as uImage will boot correctly.
Unfortunately, the default for this package is a compressed image.

Steps to reproduce, with output shown:

Hi
This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.
If you can reproduce it with
- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports
please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.
Regards,
Salvatore
