That could be either a hardware or a kernel issue. The address 0f0f0f0f may mean something to the people on the linux-kernel mailing list, I suggest that you post a message there giving all possible details of the crash including the output of "ksymoops". Here is the email address: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I have done extensive bonnie++ runs on the test8 kernel without any problems, which doesn't mean it's not a kernel bug (maybe means that it's a bug that's difficult to track down).
