this time with a 2.6.25-rc4-wl: (unfortunatly tainted again)
the serial console seems to work: GFPs all over the place...
take a look here:

Since I get so many different Oopses. I'm beginning to suspect my
fancy JFS/ReiserFS/Ext3:DM-Crypt:LVM2:MD(Raid1) combo causes 
memory corruptions/leaks/voodoo...  

like this other tragic incident:

situation: the system died after writing >2 Gb from /dev/zero 
(gosh, about only 1Mb/s-500kb/s!!) into a file in a _mounted_ 
loopdevice of a old-hdd-image-file on a jfs/dm-crypt/lvm2 combo. 

BTW: bisect is still running... the regression seems to have sneaked in
between 2.6.24 and 2.6.25-rc1 however 4000 diffs will take a while... 

(it takes so long since the raid has to resync each reboot... 
Thank *** that this is just a stress-testing system that can take some 
beating without _failing_ apart. ;-) )

Regards,
	Chr
