Hi there!

This week I have had 2 panics and I need some advice on
how to proceed in reporting or diagnosing the problem.
Please point me to the correct forum for this information,
if this is not the correct list.

I am running a custom 1.6 kernel, based on GENERIC, with
devices I do not have removed.  Since I also occasionally
run -current (on another disk), and have had crashes in
the past I could not diagnose, I have debug kernels available.

Both crashes occurred in the same place:

In examining the fs structure in frame 30 (ffs_sync), both
panics occurred on my /usr mount, which is mounted softdep,
though that may be a red herring given my lack of experience
in examining netbsd kernel issues.

Any assistance or tips would be very welcome.  config diffs
and core dumps available if you want them.
