Could you please inform us about :
- the architecture (not obvious from the dump)
- the *exact* kernel version. uclinux and 2.4.32 are not enough. I
would guess 2.4.32-uc0, but I'm not sure that it's the only one.
Also, if you have other patches applied, please point to them.
- a list of the loaded modules and the .config
- how often it happens (every minutes, hours, days, weeks, ...) and
if you know an easy way to reproduce it (you only mentionned that
it *only* seems to happen in the circumstances above, but not if
it's guaranteed).
Of course, this will not guarantee that anybody will reply nor find
the bug, but right now, it might discourage many people from searching.
