I've tracked down my REPEATABLE OOPSes to the inode list getting corrupted...at least that is my take on it. This happens after a lot of activity on an IDE VFAT fs.
In fs/inode.c, sync_inodes() will try to de-reference a NULL pointer :-( The real problem is, how is the list getting corrupted in the first place
I've had this problem with all v2.* kernels, including v2.1.13.
I'll post more info on this as I discover it, but I'd sure like some help with this, as my fs knowledge is almost non-existant.
