2.6rc2 works fine with 2.5 kernel. What is the difference between kernels? uname reports the same complation date but their size are different and both named 2.6.29.1-tinycore ?

EDIT:

Hm... With 2.5 kernel it starts always as expected. Just now it got frozen just leaving it running after boot with LXDE but no other applications running. Except this single case it is usable and works with no problem.

Jason W:
To me it sounds like you may have some bad RAM, that is often cited as a cause of system freezing.  If you have not already, it might pay to run memtest on that machine just to be safe.

The kernel image has been upx'd in this RC.

It is possible. Till now there were no any indication. Will check.

I just ran a test with a full set of 4096-ized extensions and it looks good.

Yes. This is annoying because the tools to fix the problem may not be loaded yet.


roberts:
You should update your extensions before you update the system files.
Perhaps you missed:

You must have your tcz collection updated, i.e., all squashfs and all with 4096 block size.
The repository has been updated.
