We have a machine which is currently making heavy use of a usb hard disc
formatted with ntfs.  There have been two occasions where the kernel has
oopsed while this disc was being accessed heavily.  Before adding this HDD
the machine in question was rock solid which leads me to think that it
might be related to ntfs.  USB drives formatted with other filesystems do
not appear to suffer from this problem.

Unfortunately bogofilter considers the oops reports as spam so I cannot post
them to the list.  I have instead put the full text of my original post
regarding this topic on the web at

I'm happy to try things to narrow down the cause if it will help.

Please CC me on reply.
