All the oopses have scrolled off and the pictures are blurry, so it's not possible to see the backtraces clearly. To prevent the scroll-off please add these boot options: pause_on_oops=600 initcall_debug debug ignore_loglevel This should rate-limit the crash to one oops per 600 seconds. The first one is probably the most interesting one. Also, does the vga=ask boot option added to the ones above work for you? If yes then on bootup select a VGA mode that has as many lines as possible (to capture a big oops screen) - but in this case it's doubly important that the picture you take is *sharp*.
