We are running reiserfs on some partitions. 2 x 9.1GB SCSI HDD and 1 x 18GB SCSI HDD. Kernel 2.2.18 Every so often the machines freezes, possibly whilst we are rsyncing to the machine, but it does not freeze every day. Error messages copied from the screen: Freeze 1 kmem_alloc: Bad slab magic (corrupt) cname=skbuff_head_cache Freeze 2 unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 current tss.cr3=140C9000 %cr3-140e9000 *pde=00000000 Opps=0002 Cpu=1 EIP=00/0=[,c0136130>] EFLAGS=00010246 eax: ebx ecx etc Process rsync (pid=1728, process nr=90, stackpage=d41d9000) In both of these the kernel was corrupt on the boot sector and had to use a floppy to boot. Rerun lilo it is OK.
