If you, too, don't use [testing] and get kernel panics then this is
because there is at least one important package update which is needed
by kernel26 2.6.32.2-2 missing in [core]. I guess it's mkinitcpio. If
you update your system to [testing] then it works again.

So the packages which are currently in [testing] urgently need to be
moved to [core] or kernel26 2.6.32.2-2 urgently needs to be moved back
to [testing] until the other packages are moved to [core], too. I think
the first option is the better one.

This should be done before more users, who are using the stable repos,
get serious problems.

See my bug report at http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/17649 and my e-mail
"[arch-general] Kernel panic with kernel26 2.6.32.2-2 from [core]".
