David,

(not ftp avail, sorry) I'll email you the dump for the 2 consecutive boots (If anyone else wants them let me know). Everytime I run the cardmgr and plug in the card, the next boot crashes on a write. And every boot after that too. I can bypass this problem by making /var a ramfs mount. (because cardmgr is writing to /var something). So it looks like write to a jffs2 /var is whats causing the problem, because when /var is mounted a ramfs and jffs2 is readonly, all is well. But solving this problem would be nice:)
Your help is appreciated...

Sequence on commands I ran:
<boot>
cat /proc/kmsg
echo 9 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk
df
cardmgr
<Plugged in the ATA CF card >
df
<Reboot>
cat /proc/kmsg
echo 9 > /proc/sys/kernel/printk
df
ls > text (<- crash)
