Ok, I have two things.
First, another oops. I upgraded the system to rc1 yesterday and it did not
survive a single day. Here's the decoded oops, the box was "clean" meaning no
weird modules or the like:


ksymoops 2.4.8 on i686 2.4.22-rc1. Options used
-V (default)
-k /proc/ksyms (default)
-l /proc/modules (default)
-o /lib/modules/2.4.22-rc1/ (default)
-m /boot/System.map-2.4.22-rc1 (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.

As you can see reiserfs seems involved. Regarding reiserfs and my last postings
I can assure you that all reiserfs partitions were checked via reiserfsck right
before installation of rc1 - as Oleg advised - and found:
"Comparing bitmaps.. vpf-10640: The on-disk and the correct bitmaps differs"
I was told to use --fix-fixable option which I did and it indeed fixed the
problem. Trying reiserfsck after that found no errors any more. So I see no
chance that corrupt data on the media (through former crashes) is responsible
for this one. Hint: spelling in reiserfsck should be checked ;-)

Second, I re-install the box with CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB="y" right now. Please tell
me if I should perform special steps (SYSRQ or the like) after the next crash
happens, or if the decoded oops will be sufficient.

Regards,
Stephan
