In case the bz2 didn't make it through the list:

So, here are the results from the 4K runs:

Beside one Oops message, I got a "kernel BUG at mm/slab.c:2747!" in log
#1. Call traces as usual.

Further, logs #2 and #3 show funny things; the thing just rebooted. Log
#2 has some oversized ethernet frames before the reboot.



Sorry for the CC, I thought you were subscribed to lkml and removed you.

The disks are both fine, they worked in other pcs without problems. The
ide controller card also worked fine, and the motherboard is new -
whatever you can expect with that. Maybe the combination is the problem.

I had some problems after running the machine for some days but I
thought that wasn't a hardware but more a kernel timing problem:

After starting the yacy daemon, it's about half a minute until the
"possible recursive locking detected" appears, and after one or two
minutes the whole thing crashes.

Memory, motherboard, and CPU would be possible candidates, in roughly
that order of likelihood. If you can run memtest86+ on it overnight,
that would provide a bit more confidence in all.

Can you try using a different IDE controller to reproduce the panic
on the same system?

I wonder if that does anything unusual apart from use the network?
Can you break it with anything else? a big ftp transfer?

So this is definitely a hardware problem? Which component is most likely
to be the bad one?
