[2.4.18] oops in lvm or raid

Hi

The system in question runs:-
   ext3-> lvm->raid1(hdc,hde) -> ide( piix  , pdc202xx )

We had a power failure here which caused serve corruption 
on our system, after coming back up one of the ext3 partitions
wouldn't recover its journal and there was manual fsck ing
gave warnings of serve data loss. Before fscking I created a 
lvm snapshot of the partition desperately hoping that the lvm 
meta data was intact. And used this to write the raw filesystem image
pre-fsck to a tape.

Anyway to cut the chase I forgot to delete this snapshot partition
before recovering filesystem form a backup and at about the time
the snapshot got full I got the following kernel messages....

The lines without a date stamp I manually added with my own hand oops
decoding which doesn't seem to match the ksymoops handling. 

This is a stock kernel (bf2.4) from debian stable (Version: 2.4.18-5)

More information available on request, I'm going to try to find time
to set a similar system up to try to reproduce but that might not be
this week.
