Package: ifrename Version: 28-1 Severity: important ifrename causes a kernel panic during boot if the following conditions are verified concurrently: 1) a PCMCIA wireless card is inserted during boot; 2) ndiswrapper is configured for the card and the ndiswrapper ; 3) the interface's configuration is missing in /etc/network/interfaces
The crash is averted if the card is inserted into the slot after the boot process (specifically, after ifrename was executed). -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (200, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17.11-kanotix-2 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO-8859-15 (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages ifrename depends on: ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libiw28 28-1 Wireless tools - library ifrename recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
