Describe "won't boot".

Besides, the 1.4.1 kernel has a bug fix for some grf_cl problem, so you 
should test that first. (1.4.1 was officially announced today.)

Panic "what"?

But as I wrote: try 1.4.1 first. If that works, don't bother to report
errors in 1.2, 1.2.1, 1.3, 1.3.1, 1.3.2, 1.3.3 or 1.4. :-)

Should be fine, as far as I can tell.
