I am using 7.0.2 on a Motorola Mac and 7.0.3 on an Intel Mac. Using both I encounter pretty frequent kernel panics which require a hard reboot. I have different hardware and plug ins on each system; the one thing in common so far is using Live. Possibly the interaction of Live and iTunes trying to grab the audio engine. I dunno. But wondering if anyone saw this and how 7.0.5 goes.

7.0.5 working perfect here... I think "kernel panic" is more a "bad hardware" issue, you have to check the connections of all your hardware, sometimes the equipment has to be connected/disconnected in certain order to avoid the kernel panics.

Kernel panics are problems of kernel software (drivers, the OS kernel itself, file systems, etc). Application software such as Live are typically not responsible for kernel panics.
