Getting an oops with a pine trail netbook I'm doing testing on on
2.6.32-rc6 with a fresh new distro kernel for the next Ubuntu 10.04

The machine boots fine with 2.6.31.

The oops happens early on the boot process, I'll next rebuild my own
with early boot delay (CONFIG_BOOT_PRINTK_DELAY) as that seems to be
the only way I'm going to get this full trace out. Good thing is its
100% reproducible so I should be able to bisect. The only thing
visible so far is the end of the oops:

I compiled my own 2.6.32-rc6 based Linus' tip from today actually and
I didn't run into issues.

I had similar problem on Pineview ( I think you have meant Pineview - not Pinetrail?) - had to boot with "nomodeset" option.
However it has been rectified in a first git after -rc6.
Works for me now...
