One of my machines crashes on boot with a kernel built from xen/stable-2.6.32.x . I can't capture the full output and annoyingly a boot on a KVM machine within the same system works but a photo is attached and the most relevant bit from the crash left on the screen looks to be

RIP [<ffffffff81277e63>] acpi_ds_exec_end_op+0x237/0x3dc
 RSP <ffff8800db6fb900>
CR2: 000000000000000a
---[ end trace 5a5d197966b56a2e ]---
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

This is on x86_64 . Another machine which is i686 works.
