Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-686
Version: 2.6.26-13
After installation of lenny on an Hp Compaq dc7900 (model FU202EA)
computer (Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400) and rebooting,
the /var/log/kern.log file grows rapidly and fills up the /var partition
(3 GB) in a few minutes, rendering the installation useless.
Here is a sample of the repeated warning in kern.log:

The partition scheme includes /, /usr, /var, /tmp, /home and /swap
partitions.
I used the
/cdimage/lenny_di_rc1/i386/jigdo-dvd/debian-testing-i386-DVD-1.jigdo
image, build date 04-Nov-2008.
libc-2.7.so
The hardware-summary and lsb-release files are attached.
Any help will be appreciated.
