Yes it is a 2.6.17.11 stable kernel. - By the way: we tried to setup kernel 2.6.18.2 on that machine but we got a weired time error, ntpdate shows two times: first run correct time, second run time is half an hour in the future - so we switched back to 2.6.17.11 > If it was really just sparse annotations, they were obviously > fixed, i think.

In detail: a Kernel BUG in /var/log/messages is written and after that the cpu load average is climbing up to 20-30, any tries to shutdown the system, kill processes umounts etc. are in vain. Than the system freezes completely: no keyboard, nothing. cheers, martin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
