I'm being bit by an extremely troublesome regression on HEAD (when the 
kernel
was built, at least) of Linus' tree. The symptoms are that the kernel boots,
blinks the cursor a few times, then reboots without showing any messages or
switching to the uvesafb mode specified on the commandline. Trying to 
boot the
kernel in qemu causes it to hang with a blank screen and a non-blinking 
cursor,
not even printing anything to a serial terminal. .config is below.

I'm on an MSI-1651-ID2 laptop, core2duo T5550, 4g ram, compiled with GCC 
4.4.3.

what is the last good kernel?
can you bisect this?
