Barry, if you're getting an oops, isn't there a stack trace you can give us?
Is there anything in dmesg that's helpful?  Anything in any of the /var/log
files?

Any chance you can get us an image of your livecd to try and reproduce the
oops here?  With that, what set of steps should we take to reproduce the
oops you get?

Which unionfs2 patch did you apply precisely?  Can you give me the actual
name of the patch?  Is it the very latest one?

Yeah, I think that's doable.  I assume you want it for 2.6.21.LATEST, right?

That's harder, b/c our patches include VFS-level changes that we pushed
through to -mm and in some cases into mainline; these changes aim to provide
better support for stackable file systems in general.  But yes, the downside
is that they touch some major kernel headers resulting in the need to
recompile the whole kernel.
