I can reproduce the following in 2.6.16-rc5, User Mode Linux: kernel BUG at drivers/block/loop.c:621! Kernel panic - not syncing: BUG!
EIP: 0073:[<ffffe410>] CPU: 0 Not tainted ESP: 007b:b7de1f9c EFLAGS: 00200246 Not tainted EAX: 00000000 EBX: 000018be ECX: 00000013 EDX: 000018be ESI: 000018bb EDI: 00000011 EBP: b7de1fb8 DS: 007b ES: 007b 09b87bb4: [<0806c762>] show_regs+0x102/0x110 09b87bd0: [<0805b6fc>] panic_exit+0x2c/0x50 09b87be0: [<0807ff7d>] notifier_call_chain+0x2d/0x50 09b87c00: [<08071095>] panic+0x75/0x120 09b87c20: [<0812e181>] loop_thread+0x151/0x160 09b87c4c: [<08065297>] run_kernel_thread+0x37/0x60 09b87cfc: [<0805bbd1>] new_thread_handler+0x91/0xc0 09b87d20: [<ffffe420>] disks+0xf7e7ec84/0x4 The reproduction sequence is a bit involved (my mount regression test and the current svn snapshot of busybox are involved), and running the following sequence of commands: mount; mount -a; mount; mount /dev/loop1 /images/vfat.dir ; losetup /dev/loop1; ls; vi /etc/fstab; cat /etc/fstab; losetup /dev/loop0; mount /images/vfat.img /images/vfat.dir -o ro The current busybox mount is still broken in a couple of known places (hence the testing; I'm fixing it). But it probably shouldn't panic the kernel...
