Looks like a correction is in order, I just had a kernel panic while running the mainline kernel. While the problem always occurs while updating, it does not occur on every update, so it's hard to reproduce.
I've typed over the exact error messages I get on screen when it happens: [ 595.024498] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x0000ff00 [ 595.024498] [ 595.024760] drm_kms_helper: panic occurred, switching back to text console ** Tags removed: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-3.11.0-rc2 ** Tags added: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-3.11.0-rc2 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1202998 Title: kernel panic when updating Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Every time I update ubuntu 13.10 using sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade, my pc freezes with a kernel panic: trying to kill init.
