Hi, Sorry for the long delay. I missed your email initially.
I am trying this with the 2.6.30 kernel. It does not crash there but I see a kernel with the way control of Northbridge events is handled in the presence of multiple event sets. That does not work. So I suggest you try with two separate runs instead. Sorry about that.
