Hi,
I'm new to this list and so I don't know if you already have talked about this problem. When a friend of mine, using a Win95 workstation, issued the ping command using a pack of 65510 bytes and addressed to my Linux 2.0.22, it simply rebooted. On the second time he issued that command, all the process stopped because of a general protection 000, including the agetty processes. This problem was reported on comp.unix.aix (I think) regarding to AIX (obviously), but I tried on a Linux system and it worked (my system stopped).
