Hi,

Here's another crash: (see the dmesg, its right when powering the disks up)
http://home.comcast.net/~jpiszcz/20110627/IMG_2704.JPG

In this case, I was mkfs.xfs -f (some disks attached to a sata dock) over
an Sil 3132 card, I disconnected the card and re-ran it w/ the on-board
SATA controller and the problem no longer occurred (crashed repeatedly
everytime with the NIC error), strange.

In any case, will let you know if there are any further crashes after
removing that PCI-e card.

Hi,

Per:
http://www.mail-archive.com/e1000-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg04232.html

I am using the drivers on e1000.sf.net for:
e1000e
igb
igbe

version: 1.3.17-NAPI
srcversion: BA556C5C800B0D67E5F8B84
version: 3.0.22
srcversion: 45B8078075068728A5A5573
version: 3.3.9-NAPI
srcversion: 0734B0E06E21B50A92ADDFF

No crashes when I run mkfs.xfs (w/the eSATA card back in).

Will monitor throughout to see if it recurs.
When will the current -stable versions go into mainline?

Also, is there a kernel option to 'pause' or take a screenshot of a kernel console crash/dump/stack trace (besides kdump) and not reboot the machine when it crashes?

I do not have any option to reboot on panic, but sometimes it still does that.

Thanks!

Justin.
