Hmmm.  I'm wondering if you're seeing the same random panics I've been
having with my SLOTMAN kernels recently.  Never seem to get the same
panic twice.  Always seems to happen during periods of heavy disk I/O.
And only happens when trying to get into  multi-user;  single-user is
fine.  Most common panics are MMU faults and/or Illegal Instructions.

The funny thing is, a GENERIC kernel (with my SLOTMAN changes) works OK,
but a custom kernel (with all the devices either commented out or wired
down hard) fails every time.
