While doing a find to get rid of 2.5M smallish files in 1 directory I got the stuff pasted below which made the system freeze.
This is on Fedora 10 on AMD x86_64 with a custom kernel.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Can I help?

Run memtest first.

Can do, but so far there was no trace of memory error. I can compile kernels for days without this bug which hit me for the first time today.
The machine was up for 36 days or so with no other kernel-related crash/BUG/etc.
Also the links I posted might point in the direction of a kernel issue?

Kind regards,
Udo
