[Bug 1300235] Re: init crashed with SIGSEGV

[James Hunt]

Jeremie and Peter - thanks for attaching the crash files, but like the
others affected the core file encoded inside '_sbin_init.0.crash'  were
generated by chrome / chromium-browser so we cannot use these to debug
the system crash. There seems to be some strange interaction between
chrome, upstart, the kernel and apport but without further information
or the ability to reproduce the problem we can't investigate further.

To those affected, you may want to consider either running the packaged
version of chromium-browser in Ubuntu, or using a different browser
entirely, or even running chrome inside an unprivileged LXC container as
documented here:
