I'm running 2.4.8 with the ext3 0.9.6 patch.

I was running make dep, and suddenly it the disk stopped doing anything. All I could do with the keyboard was switch consoles.

I pressed alt+scroll lock a few times, and the EIP was about the same each time, so I assume it's looping somewhere.

I wrote the EIP and Call trace down, and ran that thru ksymoops, and got this:
