[WBEL-users] panic in WBEL4?

Dear Friends

I'm getting 4 to 5 panics per day on my computer.  Most of them produce an 
reboot (because I have the Kernel parameter "panic=10"), but not all do.

I have been sitting next to the computer when this happens, and the frame, 
power supply and everything else feels cool to the touch, so I don't think 
it's a heat problem.

Specifics of my configuration:

WBEL4 updated as of 17 July 2006
Applications are
  - mail, http, dns and ftp servers
The system also provides routing functions (NAT) to my home windows computers.

512M of memory
two NIC's
Command line interface only (no graphic stuff installed)
Two HDs (80, 120) combined as a single logical volume
Anything else you need to know?

The failures that I've been able to see mostly say "spinlock" or something 
similar, but it's pure luck if I see the failure.

I've tried two memory modules (pc2100 ddr, and pc2700 ddr) and both produce 
similar failures.

Do I have a bad CPU?  Bad memory? Bad drives? Bad Linux?

HELP

I have enclosed a copy of the "dmsg" output after a boot, maybe there's 
something there I haven't noticed.  I converted it to cr-lf notation in 
case you are reading with windows.
