Title:
  Only when using kernel parameter init=/sbin/e4rat-preload kernel
  panics when updating libc6

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Every time I update ubuntu 13.10 using sudo aptitude update && sudo
  aptitude safe-upgrade, my pc freezes with a kernel panic: trying to
  kill init. The error code is 0000ff00. So far this has happened 4 or 5
  times, always when installing updates.

  WORKAROUND: Use default kernel parameters (e.g. remove init=/sbin
  /e4rat-preload ).
