Hi Bruno,

Thank you for attaching this information. However, this info is from when you boot the 2.6.20 kernel. What is going to most helpful to us is the information from when you boot with the 2.6.22 kernel, particularly the dmesg output. This will be tricky though because of the automatic shutdown you run into. There a few things you can try, boot into the 2.6.22 kernel and let it automatically shutdown. Then boot into the known good 2.6.20 kernel. Check /var/log/kern.log.0 and see if it captured anything from when you booted the 2.6.22 kernel. If so, please attach this file. The other option you can try is booting with the 2.6.22 kernel but remove 'quiet' and 'splash' from you kernel command line? This can be done with the following:

1) Press 'Escape' key at the 3 second pause by Grub bootloader.
2) Then press 'e' (edit) on the 2.6.24 kernel entry, followed by 'e' again on the kernel line.
3) Then remove the 'splash' and 'quiet' keywords and press 'b' to boot.

If can can take a digital photo of any errors you see prior to it automatically shutting down, this will help us out with debugging. Then just attach the photo to this report. Thanks!
