I tried loading the exact same modules on another box in the exact same order, no crash. The box is actually running nicely. I'm busy compiling the kernel again, this time with a few debug options ticked. As far as I saw 2 days ago, its when I load uhci-hcd that the problem manifests itself... this is the order the modules are loaded in... snd, snd_als4000, crc32, sis900, psmouse, evdev, tsdev, agpgart, sis_agp, pci_hotplug, usbcore, ohci_hcd, ub, ehci_hcd, ieee1394, ohci1394, uhci_hcd The OOPS is triggered from loading uhci_hcd, so it could be ohci1394 that creates the corruption. I've had problems with ohci1394 in 26.8.1 aswell, I cannot load it, unload it, and reload it... generates a D state for the modprobe. Any tips on how i can track down the offending line in source?
