[Xen-devel] Paging oopses



Hi All, bad news.

After running several guests for most of the past week on the 12 Feb
build of 1.2, built with GCC 3.3.2, with 64Mb of RAM and NFS roots, I
finally got another paging oops.  The entire console log, xen and
xenolinux binaries, and System.map, are at:

        http://t7a.org/tmp/oops1-n2h54/

Let me know if there's anything else I can do.  

Steve
