Of course it's a kernel bug. I just thought you may have some ideas.

OK, I'll read up on this and see if I can figure it out. BTW, I'm trying
actual installs on a spare partition so I'm not sure how to grab the oops
file. Normally it would appear in a log file? Anyway, I'll try make it
break outside an install. I'll also try building with 2.2.13 and see what
happens.
