MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7BIT User-Agent: Internet Messaging Program (IMP) 3.2.2 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org I'm getting regular kernel panics with a vanilla 2.6.10 kernel. Not sure how to tell which bit is causing the panic from the output (which isn't logged). Some of the output noted down by pen+paper: Process Swapper (pid:0 threading info=c04b8000 task=c042db00) Stack: .... Call trace: [] runtimer.softirq+0x11f/0x170 unknown boot option +0x0/0x... code: f3.... kernel panic - not syncing: fatal exception in interupt It crashes about every 2 days, usually when writing to disk but I'm guessing here. I have a system with 3 SCSI cards: Adaptec AHA-2940/2940W Adaptec AIC-7892A U160/m American Megatrends Inc. MegaRAID 428 Ultra RAID Controller An the IDE bus is: [SiS] 5513 and maybe it could be related to this mix of hardware? How do I begin to try and diagnose this problem? Really want to help to fix this if I can.
