Hello all,
I received an oops in 2.4.16, attached is the output in plain text of 
running ksymoops on the text dumped in /var/log/messages.
Symptoms when oops resulted:
Box had become mostly unresponsive on ssh logins, with user shells 
locking up and not responding approx 90 seconds after login.
As root on sucessive new consoles I attempted to issue, in order, 
/sbin/reboot /sbin/halt and /sbin/init 0 with strace attached to each.
reboot terminated normally  but did not trigger a reboot. halt 
segfaulted however I lost the strace output (sorry). init also 
terminated normally, however
I then walked to the console and saw oops text on the screen. At the 
time I also had a large amount, 700+ Meg, of file system data in cache 
as I was attempting to stress
the VM and used a recursive grep on the / filesystem to force caching.
Config details:
Quad PIII Xeon
1GB Ram

Thanks in advance for help on this,
also, please cc me directly as well as the list as I'm not a regular 
reader of the messages here.
Sincerely,
