My box came up first time lucky on this release, but I got a new oops:

NET: Registered protocol family 1
NET: Registered protocol family 17
BUG: swapper/1, active lock [b19e6428(b19e6400-b19e6600)] freed!

p4-clockmod: P4/Xeon(TM) CPU On-Demand Clock Modulation available
Starting balanced_irq

The box carried on and booted up normally after that and seems otherwise OK.

I'm yet to test this release out more throughly for some other problems I have
seen recently as they require multiple reboots etc etc, but this one was more
obvious :)
