Re: Fedora 16 kernel panic

[Brian Johnson <voyager.106@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you all for the responses. I went to reboot my laptop into the old 3.2.2 kernel to confirm that it was having the same issue, and it boot into it with no problem. I then reboot my laptop and let it start up with the latest 3.2.7 kernel, and it, too, started with no problem again.

There doesn't seem to be any consistency to it. Hadn't had a chance to make any of the suggested changes below....
