On rebooting I found something in the logs, which is rare because it said "not syncing". So I'm assuming this isn't the panic that killed the box, but she probably knows (of) him, so let's interrogate her anyway: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00020008 c0139fad *pde = 00000000 Oops: 0002 CPU: 0 EIP: 0010:[bdput+5/96] EFLAGS: 00010206 eax: 00020000 ebx: 00020000 ecx: ca59a648 edx: c15ddfa4 esi: c15ddfa4 edi: c97b9428 ebp: c15ddfac esp: c15ddf6c ds: 0018 es: 0018 ss: 0018 Process kswapd (pid: 3, stackpage=c15dd000) Stack: ca59a640 c0146ef2 00020000 ca59a640 c0146f47 ca59a640 c97b9608 c97b9600 c0147179 c15ddfa4 00010f00 00000004 00000000 000036dd ca59a828 c29620c8 00000000 c01471a9 00000000 c012cde3 00000006 00000004 00000006 00000004 Call Trace: [clear_inode+194/220] [dispose_list+59/84] [prune_icache+261/276] [shrink_icache_memory+33/48] [do_try_to_free_pages+103/124] [kswapd+101/240] [kernel_thread+40/56] Code: f0 ff 4b 08 0f 94 c0 84 c0 74 4d f0 fe 0d 60 25 24 c0 0f 88 Using defaults from ksymoops -t elf32-i386 -a i386 Code; 00000000 Before first symbol 00000000 <_EIP>: Code; 00000000 Before first symbol 0: f0 ff 4b 08 lock decl 0x8(%ebx) Code; 00000004 Before first symbol 4: 0f 94 c0 sete %al Code; 00000007 Before first symbol 7: 84 c0 test %al,%al Code; 00000009 Before first symbol 9: 74 4d je 58 <_EIP+0x58> 00000058 Before first symbol Code; 0000000b Before first symbol b: f0 fe 0d 60 25 24 c0 lock decb 0xc0242560 Code; 00000012 Before first symbol 12: 0f 88 00 00 00 00 js 18 <_EIP+0x18> 00000018 Before first symbol kernel BUG at exit.c:458! invalid operand: 0000 CPU: 0 EIP: 0010:[do_exit+668/680] EFLAGS: 00010286 eax: 0000001a ebx: c023d020 ecx: 00000002 edx: 02000000 activating NMI Watchdog ... done. cpu: 0, clocks: 1002544, slice: 334181 cpu: 1, clocks: 1002544, slice: 334181 oh, kernel 2.4.2.
