Subject: 2.6.18 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 000,0000a
Date: Sat, 23 Sep 2006 17:56:05 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <45155915.7080107@cweiske.de> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 7304 bytes --]
Hello,
I have a reproducible BUG on my server that occurs whenever disk usage
gets too high / too much swapping occurs (at least I think that is). The
box has one reiserfs filesystem of about 187GB size, the disk is on an
Epia 5000 board, between them is a Promise Ultra 100 PCI IDE controller
card.
Any hints about how to resolve this problem are very welcome.
The trace from the serial console:
