[OOPS] 2.6.23.1 in ext2/pdflush (tainted)

2007-10-21 Thread Mark Hindley
I have just upgraded an old K6 200 box to 2.6.23.1. It has oopsed overnight. Unfortunately the kernel is tainted by madwifi modules. As it is used headless as a wireless router, I can't remove them, but the trace looks to be in the pdflush/ext2 code. Config attached. Let me know if you want more
