Thanks George. Do you happen to have a log of the actual kernel crash?
I think Stefano (CCd) has been fixing this issue (or at least one which
sounds very similar) in the upstream kernels recently. Stefano is there
anything specific I can backport to a Jeremy xen.git 2.6.32 style pvops
kernel? Or is there another appropriate fix?
FYI Squeeze's kernel is based on e73f4955a821 from Jeremy's tree,
although with a bunch of fixes backported too.
Thanks,
Ian.
