Rep Power: 11  |  Kernel Panic We are running a Fog server here which is now showing a kernel panic on bootup. I have tried to find some help on google, but don't really understand linux too well. I am running ubuntu 8.04 server with kernel version 2.6.24-23-server. The error i have is "Kernel panic: Not Syncing. Fatal exception in interrupt in interrupt" Can anyone help get rid of this error please? |

Rep Power: 121  | (Just before it boots you have a short moment to press a key to get to the grub menu where it'll hopefully list some kernels for you to choose from) |

Rep Power: 18 | One of the suggestions that comes up a lot is double check the hardware on the hosting machine to make sure its not something obvious first, RAM and HDD check are the first step |

Rep Power: 11 | @kmount - the only other kernels available are 2.6.24-23-server (Recovery) and memtest 86+ The memtest works, but recovery does not. @Jamo - I think you've just hit the nail on the head, I moved the server to my room to work on it and booted it up with no network cable plugged in, and it got to the logon screen, as soon as I plugged in the network cable it came up with the kernel panic. any ideas on what to try? I'm thinking replacing the nic, but i don't know. |

Rep Power: 121 | Could be hardware failure I suppose, or a driver issue which is affecting the nic. Worth trying another nic and running upgrades as my 8.04 box is on 2.6.24-25-server |

Rep Power: 11 | I've just thought, when I boot into a live cd the nic works fine. I'll look at upgrading the kernel as suggested. |
