Subject: Reproducable oops in 2.2.17 and 2.2.18pre21

Hi.

I get an oops reproducably with 2.2.17 and 2.2.18pre21 on a stock RH 6.2
system. I cannot trigger it with the RH supplied kernel (2.2.14-5.0).
I also got it with 2.2.17pre10 which prompted me to upgrade the kernel.
I initially suspected bad RAM but have exchanged the RAM with memtest86'ed
RAM for no improvement.

What I do: I try to back the system up with tar zcvf /var/backup.tar.gz 
-X exclude /lib /sbin /var /bin /etc /boot /home /root /usr
(the exclude file contains the path of the file itself, i.e., 
/var/ backup.tar.gz).

Running 2.2.17 I got the following oops during the backup, i.e., tar
had not finished yet (the exact place in the backup process varies):


ksymoops 0.7c on i586 2.2.17.  Options used
     -V (default)
     -k /proc/ksyms (default)
     -l /proc/modules (default)
     -o /lib/modules/2.2.17/ (default)
     -m /boot/System.map (specified)

Warning (compare_maps): ksyms_base symbol module_list_R__ver_module_list not found in System.map.  Ignoring ksyms_base entry
