[Users] Another kernel panic, Debian AMD64 with Supermicro hardware

[Jim Archer]

Hi All...

I thought this issue was resolved with the last kernel upgrade I did, but 
this morning at about 6:25AM Eastern (I think) one of my OpenVZ machines 
experienced a kernel panic.

The kernel is:

actual:/var/log# uname -a
Linux actual.registrationtek.com 2.6.18-openvz-13-39.1d1-amd64 #1 SMP Sat 
Sep 29 15:02:55 MSD 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux

This is Debian Etch AMD64 running on Supermicro hardware.

The messages log is not much help.  I rebooted at about noon:

Nov 12 05:43:37 actual -- MARK --
Nov 12 06:03:37 actual -- MARK --
Nov 12 06:23:37 actual -- MARK --

Nov 12 12:00:44 actual kernel: klogd 1.4.1#18, log source = /proc/kmsg 
started.
.

.


Same for syslog.  Here are the last few lines:
