 That's a NULL pointer deref.

  fault code= supervisor write, page not present
  instruction pointer   = 0x8:0xc0a75ac0

 Hmmm...  Can you look in the bin dist for the kernel.debug and do a
 'gdb -k' on it to look up this address to see what line it is dying on?

 No idea on the ahc0 error. :(

A little more information, if I disable the on-board audio (pnpscan shows
it to be CSCe835 IBM Audio Feature) the kernel panic goes away. I'm still
working on getting the line it's dying on.
