Symptoms when oops resulted: Box had become mostly unresponsive on ssh logins, with user shells locking up and not responding approx 90 seconds after login. As root on sucessive new consoles I attempted to issue, in order, /sbin/reboot /sbin/halt and /sbin/init 0 with strace attached to each. reboot terminated normally but did not trigger a reboot. halt segfaulted however I lost the strace output (sorry). init also terminated normally, however I then walked to the console and saw oops text on the screen. At the time I also had a large amount, 700+ Meg, of file system data in cache as I was attempting to stress the VM and used a recursive grep on the / filesystem to force caching. Config details: Quad PIII Xeon 1GB Ram Thanks in advance for help on this, also, please cc me directly as well as the list as I'm not a regular reader of the messages here.

Options used -V (default) -k /proc/ksyms (default) -l /proc/modules (default) -o /lib/modules/2.4.16/ (default) -m /boot/System.map-2.4.16 (default) Warning: You did not tell me where to find symbol information. I will assume that the log matches the kernel and modules that are running right now and I'll use the default options above for symbol resolution. If the current kernel and/or modules do not match the log, you can get more accurate output by telling me the kernel version and where to find map, modules, ksyms etc. ksymoops -h explains the options. No modules in ksyms, skipping objects Warning (read_lsmod): no symbols in lsmod, is /proc/modules a valid lsmod file?
