Okay, tried to find out what is causing the kernel to crash and so I
replaced the dm-crypt part by cryptoloop: same effect.

Then I tried ext3 on top of LVM2 RAID5 with no encryption and it still
crashes. Not sure what is causing the problem exactly, but it does not
seem that dm-crypt is to blame anymore.

The message I saw on the remote console when it crashed with pure ext3
on raid5 was:

Assertion failure in journal_start() at fs/jbd/transaction.c:271: "handle->h_transaction->t_journal == journal"

Hope this helps -- filed the bug as #3968 on buzilla.kernel.org, more
info at

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3968

Help appreciated, let me know if you have an idea.

Regards,
Georg
