Partition check: sda: General Protection Fault: 0000 CPU:0 EIP: 0010:[<c01232ce>] c01232a4 T find_buffer
call trace: [<c01232fd>]: c01232e8 T get_hash_table [<c012355b>]: c012353c T getblk [<c0123900>]: c01238e8 T bread [<c0191646>]: c01915f0 t msdos_partition [<c0191a3a>]: c01919c8 t check_partition
OK, this makes more sense. In check partition() the text "Partition check:" and the device name "sda" is printed, and it starts looking whether the disk has a dos partition table. In msdos_partition() the first thing is a bread() to get the first disk block. In bread() the first thing is a call to getblk(). In getblk() we search a buffer that holds or can hold the block, and start calling get_hash_table() which calls find_buffer(). But the code there looks very correct to my eyes, so unfortunately I have no idea what might be wrong.
