Sorry about before, rtfm etc, etc. We are having oops crashes on a lot of our renderwall machines running 2.4.18 with SGI's xfs 1.0.1 patch (although xfs support is disabled) and redhat 2.4.18-5 (our current production Kernel) with a system call reporting patch (I'm not sure on the name or version). I've included 2 oops crash logs (expanded now) from the vanilla 2.4.18 kernel, we get identical crashes on the RedHat kernels. I have to hand copy these because it kills the machine dead, when I catch a dead redhat machine I'll email the oops dump from that too. The machines hardware is as follows: 2 2.2Ghz Xeon Processors 4G registered ECC DDR RAM Tyan e7500 Motherboard AMI Bios Rev 1.01 ide HDD with ext3 filesystem Any help would be appreciated greatly. Thank You. -- Kind Regards Aaron Caskey Wrender Wrangler ----------------- /----------------------------------------\ | If animals were not meant to be eaten, | | why are they made out of meat? | \---\ /----------------------------------/ / |\_/| |o o|__ --*--__\ C_C_(___)
