I can put it up on the same web site as the last one if anyone would find it useful to see (I certainly don't know how to interpret it). also, this is a netbook, so it has no serial port. If it did I'd look into a serial console on the theory that I could capture the entire dump. Can anyone suggest how I would do that without a serial console? ... or if not exactly that, other things that would be useful to do to help clarify/diagnose this? thanks all!
