I think this is caused by corruption of the memory management structures
and has very little to do with the CD or its contents.

Well, this is 2.6.32-21 not -27 (the version specified in your initial
report).  If you haven't rebooted after upgrading to 2.6.32-27 then
please do.  Actually, please upgrade to the latest version 2.6.32-29 and
then reboot.

Ben.
