Hi, I have a dual 8-core AMD Opteron 6128 with 4 1TB disks that crashed during install. Is the limited information from /tmp/syslog any use here? Here's a small part of it in hopes its useful or provide ideas for something that can be done to prevent it from happening again. It failed during the process of making the filesystem on the RAID devices, and IO would slow to basically nothing. BUG: soft lockup - CPU#13 stuck for 61s!
