Priority should be at least high.   I experienced over a dozen crashes
last night, as I tried various kernels.  Finally my system wouldn't boot
anymore - just a grub> prompt, and no menu.   (I think, because the
system froze while I was installing an old kernel/headers.)  Took me
about 3 hours to figure out how to get it working again (complicated by
my booting from software RAID, and by the fact that for some reason
grub2 was never installed, and there was no grub menu on either boot
disk).

Apart from the hours/days of lost time, now I'm quite nervous about
losing data as well.  I want to help improve the distribution, but I
need a stable system....  will probably have to revert to karmic on the
weekend.
