The most important question: What filesystem is your /boot on? I'd bet quite some money that it is reiser or some other journaling FS (not ext3).

I am pretty sure that it will also happen if you do "updatedb &", wait a minute and then do a _HARD_ power off.
I am pretty sure that it has nothing to do with the kernel version, just with the layout of your /boot partition (which of course changes with every kernel update). In other words: until now, you just have been lucky. -- Stefan Seyfried QA / R&D Team Mobile Devices | "Any ideas, John?"
