I think I've solved my kernel panic problem. Installed Mantel's latest build! Two major fixes in the Mantel build included: - Fix error handling in acl-ext3: Users triggerable error may panic the kernel if the FS error behavior is set to panic. - work around severe bug in older VIA southbridges I'm not sure what the first one entails, though I use ext3. But the second one definitely affected me. Now running 8.1 for over 2 hours with no sign of a panic, whereas I couldn't get it to run more than 15 minutes before. I've been running all kinds of programs and such pushing it to the limit, and nothing. If this *is* the case, it may be time to put a patch on YOU that includes some/all of the mantel fixes. But only 2 hours so far. If there's no panic overnight, I'm going to assume the Mantel kernel to be a success. :-P Joe
