one of my mandrake machines always crashes hard,
with the following message.

    Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address c51ce0bc

followed by memory information, flags, registers contents, 
call traces etc. and finishes with

    Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
    In interrupt handler - not syncing

nothing responds after that.
ssh from other machines, C-A-Del,
the SysRq key combinations, etc.

a check in 
    /var/log/info
    /var/log/syslog
    /var/log/messages
showed a shorewall entry as the last thing logged, 
which i dun think is the culprit.

the system is my router, running mandrake 9.0, always on,
with no human interaction unless doing some admin task.
interestingly, it has *never* crashed while i'm actually 
doing something on it.

has anyone experienced this sort of crashes b4?
any idea what causes it, or what i can do to isolate it?

thanks in advance,
Jim
