1.3.75 had a bug in DMA memory allocation with kmalloc() - that shows up with some SCSI drivers and potentially with some network drivers (does the etherblaster use DMA?). Anyway, could you check out 1.3.76 which should have that particular bug fixed (and if it still happens, please re-send the panic messages with the appropriate symbol table information)
