Package: linux-image-2.6.16-1-k7 Version: 2.6.16-4 Severity: important Hi,
Since 2.6.16 I experience some crashes when mounting an encrypted ide partition. Crashes does not always happen but let's say 50% time. If it shall crash it always happen just when mounting the partition. Effects are : X or console freeze. Under console, SysRq Sync + remount may allow to recover the console after some 'sleeping time' (however no 'DONE' appearing). Later '/sbin/reboot' sometimes hangs and SysRq reboot is the only way. In case the console comes back one can save from dmesg: ... BUG: soft lockup detected on CPU#0!

I never experienced such problem with 2.6.15. I booted with 2.6.12 and did not see the same problem -> seems to come from 2.6.16. I tried to reproduce it on an encrypted USB stick (to avoid any risk of hdd corruption resulting from trials), but I couldn't -> seems linked to hdd. I can reproduce it on several different hdd.
