2.4.17.. multiple oops 's

Well I was able to restore my system after the oopses but it was a
little disconcerning.

I had three oopses.  One while using X and logged into the internet, and
then the other two after that trying to rm -rf on a directory.

Attached are the outputs of the oopses if you have any questions about
this feel free to ask.

uname -r = 2.4.17
OS = RH 7.2
glibc = /lib/libc-2.2.4.so

if you'd like my .config just ask

the weird thing was I got this message about mtab on reboot with crc io
error and had to bring the machine to init 1 and umount / and then
manually run fsck.ext3 (yes ext3 fs) with the -f switch.
