It is not an issue of the signature matching. Some bug was introduced in the middle and it seems to have carried on. That is the only explanation I could come up for my observation that you can not update from the interim 2.6.34's at all. Specifically, I went back to 2.6.33.5-122 and removed all the other more recent kernels -- the last two kernels before 2.6.34-7. Then I installed the latest 2.6.34.7-56.x86_64 from 2.6.33.5-122 and this time, it rebooted fine, no problem. The problem has cropped up over the last three kernels. If I update from a lower kernel, there is not a problem, but from these it yields the kernel panic. So, I believe this bug was introduced in the previous two kernels and has not gone away. Something there has changed (please consider the changes from the last three 2.6.34 kernels relative to the ones previous to it, I guess!)
