If you switched back to 2.6.25 or to some other kernel version, did the problem go away? If not, have you tested the RAM with memtest86+?

I'm now running 2.6.30+20~bpo50+1 from lenny backports which is also completely stable on the machine. -p -- Paul Gotch -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Bug#527080: linux-image-2.6-686: Periodic kernel panic
Package: linux-image-2.6-686 Version: 2.6.26+17+lenny1 Severity: important I've been experiencing periodic kernel panics since I upgraded to the Lenny kernel (from a backports 2.6.25) which was stable on the the same machine. The panics seem to happen every 2 days or so if I don't have a serial console attached and rather longer possibly every 4 to 8 days if I do. However this is only based on a couple of datapoints so may be spurious. I have to have a serial console attached to see the panic text at all. /proc/cpuinfo identifies the processors as processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 15 model : 2 model name : Intel(R) XEON(TM) CPU 2.00GHz stepping: 4 cpu MHz : 1995.167 cache size : 512 KB There are two processors in the machine and hyperthreading is switched off. The bios appears to be an HP specific one which dmidecode identifies as Handle 0x, DMI type 0, 20 bytes BIOS Information Vendor: Phoenix Technologies Ltd. Version: IU.W1.16US Release Date: 03/04/2003 I believe the chipset to be an Intel i860 on an HP custom motherboard.
