Ok.

Hmmm... do I need to do anything else? Like reboot a daemon or 
something? As stated this didn't avoid the kernel panic.

The first produced this:

Not touching initrd symlinks since we are being reinstalled (2.6.12-7.11)
Not updating image symbolic links since we are being updated (2.6.12-7.11)


I can't tell if that's an error, or if it's normal. The second command 
said this:

Skipping etherboot images. Install the mknbi package if you need them.
Skipping openfirmware images. Install the mkvmlinuz package if you need 
them.


Those also look harmless, but these are the only messages that I thought 
might be abnormal. The rest of the output just seemed indicate making 
symlinks, which is what I'd expect a program called ltsp-update-kernels 
to do.

:-(

Perhaps I'm missing something...

I'll read through the bug report and see if I can understand it.

Cheers,
Daniel.
