> Ouch. Looks like this bug is really a ugly one that makes the software crash, on amd64 kernel, in each of my tests, in a large and creative variety of ways: https://tails.boum.org/todo/usb_install_and_upgrade/todo/#index2h2 It also seems to happen with the 686-pae kernel, while I've not run enough tests to be certain it also happens constantly there too. So, given: * we're already a bit late wrt. the scheduled "big feature freeze" date, * while the "add 686-pae and amd64 kernels" feature would be a welcome bonus for 0.11, not shipping it with this release would be no regression, I'm tempted to simply remove those two additional kernels merge the feature/usb_installer branch as is into devel, be done with it, go ahead with the release schedule, and postpone further investigation to post-0.11 times. Another possibility would be to ship these two additional kernels, and document in some "known issues" section that weird incompatibility. I dislike this possibility on the grounds it would be a UX and user support mess.
