Hi all, I've been hit with this bug also, and I've found a relatively reliable way to reproduce it. - desktop system mounts /home/ with nfs4 - login with gdm, start firefox and do some browsing, by entering some urls in the location bar - issue some find /home & commands - unplug the network cable
This wil crash the kernel within a few minutes, for me, on two different systems. Maybe not all steps are needed, logging in and using firefox certainly is necessary. It seems that the file locking that firefox uses for a lot of database files helps in reproducing the problem. I've also recompiled the ubuntu kernel with the patch mentioned by Daniel Blueman. This was a bit harder then I imagined, I got some rejects and had to fix that manually. However, with the patched kernel I was unable to reproduce the kernel crash. Finally, I've installed the Jaunty kernel, and haven't been able to reproduce the bug with it. The jaunty kernel also has an updated rpcb_clnt.c file.
