I first did a simple test: leave the pandaboard idle, after 5 days no
crash.

Robert, I followed your instructions but after reboot I have only the
serial console and no network. It seems because my boot.script has
smsc95xx.macaddr=32:57:F8:93:E1:CD and it looks like it blocks loading
of the module with the newer kernel:

[  474.915527] smsc95xx: Unknown parameter `macaddr'

I've found no way to tell modprobe to not pass macaddr.

After I edit /boot/boot.script to remove this option when I run flash-kernel I 
get "Unsupported platform."
So I looked at flash-kernel code and ran manually the line to update boot.scr 
and managed to reboot with network this time (but another MAC address ...)

Then it looks like I lost some memory (I removed the line mem= and

Mem:    489252k total,    88104k used,   401148k free,     5700k buffers

Here is my /proc/cmdline:

# cat /proc/cmdline 
text ro root=UUID=b5d2dfb1-270c-4966-abe6-dfe7a2a17efd console=ttyO2,115200n8

I removed "elevator=noop vram=32M mem=768M" since you made no mention of
those.

What is your /proc/cmdline?

Thanks!
