Thanks for the tip. I found that patch and applied the parts for the drivers I use. This cured the oops and also allowed "hot unplugging" to finally work under 2.6 for CF cards! Is there a timeline for when this goes into mainline and/or -mm? I can still get an oops from the vfs layer if I try to access a card just after I remove it suggesting there are some timeout issues somewhere but this is a *massive* improvement on where things were before! I'm really pleased to see this :) Thanks, Richard
