Secondly, I highly recommend running memtest86 on your system for at
least a couple of passes. You can download an ISO from the homepage and
boot it from a CD. If this fails, you have faulty memory.
hmm I don't know why I didn't use memtest86. but I usually test memory on
new machine linux, by continuously gzip-ing and ungzip-ing
4GB file for 2 days and verify if the beginning
and the end file are the same memory, CPU and a bit of
hardware handling them together should be good...
The reason I'm suggesting memtest86, is that it can detect very subtle errors
(gzip will not do this). The crash you're experiencing is in core kernel
code, and it is very unlikely to be a real bug.
This is why Con and myself have suggested to reproduce without the binary
junk, and why bad memory could be a very probable cause.
