Hi,

I upgraded today from 2.6.8-rc2 to 2.6.8. Tried to burn a CD, using
cdrecord on /dev/hdc, which is an IDE CD burner (Matshita something in
the iBook G4).

Something quickly took all the memory and swap available, OOM started to
kill things and the laptop got bogged down so much that I had to reboot.
Everything is fine with 2.6.8-rc2
Excerpts of the syslog are attached. I started to burn at about 14:52,
tried to login remotely at 15:27:47 (but ssh timed out).
