Here's the tail end of the file (the original is 1.6M). Because there no times
in the log, it's hard for me to point you to the point where I crashed the other
system. I think (though I'm not sure) that the crash happened after the last
occurrence of

cache/lvmcache.c:1484   Wiping internal VG cache

Honestly, it looks like a wall of text to me. Does it suggest anything to you?
