Hi,

	Based on the names "cr_write_files" and this snippet from your
dmesg:

		[<8c0fb15c>] cr_write_mm+0x37c/0x5e0
		[<8c0f98a8>] do_checkpoint+0x4c8/0x7a0
		[<8c027280>] printk+0x0/0x40
		[<8c039080>] pid_vnr+0x0/0x20
		[<8c0f9196>] sys_checkpoint+0x36/0x60
		[<8c0171f0>] syscall_call+0xc/0x10
		[<8c0f9160>] sys_checkpoint+0x0/0x60

It looks like you're using an old version of the patches. The last
revision with those functions names that I can find with Google comes
from April.

Alot more stuff is working now -- including some important file ops. Any
chance we could help you switch to something more recent? You can get the
latest from the ckpt-v18-dev branch of:

	git clone git://git.ncl.cs.columbia.edu/pub/git/linux-cr.git

If that's not acceptable to you, could you at least let us know
specifically what code you're trying to port?

Are you planning on posting your patches somewhere? They might be
interesting to see even if incomplete or for an old cr tree.

Cheers,
	-Matt Helsley
