kernel rc7 PANIC

[Jerry Amundson]

Just updated, and kernel 2.6.26-0.85.rc7.git1.fc10.x86_64 results in:
PANIC: early exception 06 rip 10:ffffffff8114a546 error 0 cr2 0

2.6.26-0.72.rc6.git2.fc10.x86_64 boots normally. This is a Dell Optiplex 755.
I'll try a new mkinitrd, as the panic is immediately after the boot
info is displayed.

No change with the new initrd, but it exposed another error message
while running mkinitrd:
/sbin/ldconfig: /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 is not a symbolic link

Actually,  /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 *is* a symbolic link

This is actually talking about the file inside the initrd; it's a 
non-critical warning that shouldn't cause any problems, but I do need to 
fix it at some point.

Ack'd. Thanks for the clarification.

Possibly the RCU list debugging routines.  I'll do a build without them
so we know for sure.
