Soren, do you have any thoughts on what I could do to alleviate or better debug this page fault? I've found three ways to cause this: in all cases "pull" is either physical pull or "atacontrol detach <channel>"
1. Pull a drive and rebuild onto hot spare. Pull hot spare *boom* 2. Pull a drive and rebuild onto hot spare. Pull good disk *boom* ...should cause filesystem failure, but not page fault when it's not / 3. Pull a drive and then put it back. The system suddenly has a new array with just that drive in it. "atacontrol delete <new-array>" *boom* In particular, what's the story with the new array appearing when you insert a drive with array meta-data on it? That array appears to be half-there (no devices, etc) which is probably what causes #2...
