	Hello, Nathan. I am here at the University now, and yes, the kernel were 
compiled with 4K stacks. I rebuilt it with 8K and rebooted:

ulises:~# zcat /proc/config.gz |grep STACKS
# CONFIG_4KSTACKS is not set

	I ran a disk test and waited.

	After an hour, the system crashed. I forgot to plug in a console, so rebooted 
and waited again. And here it is:

 <0>Kernel panic: Fatal exception in interrupt
In interrupt handler - not syncing

	Last time I seem to remember some function related to ext3, so this is more a 
data/stack corruption than others, what do you think?

	I attach current dmesg and config, if it helps.

	Is there anything else I could do? Patches, other trees, special 
configurations? This machine seems impossible to stabilize.

	The machine is using SiI libata driver, if it could have some problem 
related...

	Many thanks in advance,


		Ender.
