It took awhile for the next oops to appear. I modifed my boot procedure by turning off swap with "swapoff -a" and allowed the system to run. I waited until all of my 1.5GB of physical RAM was allocated (cached or in use), and let the system to contiue to run. The system ran stably for 2 days with normal use. I then switch swap back on with "swapon -a".

Well. In my case, I tried without swap enabled. It still crashed when I issued "tar cf usr.tar /usr"

Sorry. My problem and many others' problem with 2.4.21-pre3-ac2 are not quite related to that of the original poster.
I was confused when I saw swap-related posting.
Sorry again.
