Reproducable(?) kernel panic

[Martin Husemann <martin%duskware.de@localhost>]

I have a dying disk on my evbearmv7hf-eb machine and am trying to get a
good-enough backup. Any write activity on this disk is ... bad.

So I booted single user, manualy set up a bit of networking and NFS-mounted
a filesystem on /mnt, then ran:

  tar -cf - --one-file-system / | gzip -9 > /mnt/backup.tgz

and this worked for quite some time (luckily enough w/o disk read errors)
but then crashed:

I tried again and it crashed again :-)
