bkbits going down for maintainance
We're going to try putting the data in a different machine and see if that is more stable. Off the air in about 10 minutes, should be back by 9:30AM PST.

We're back up, new case, quality power supply, running 2.4.22 (which I'm assuming is the right kernel to run, it seems to be what the distros are shipping). Let me know if there are any problems.

As long as it's patched. Otherwise there are major security problems.
Upgraded to 2.4.24 on the advice of many folks (thanks). I ran a script which backups up all the repos to a second disk and then another which ran BK's integrity checker on each repo; all passed and no crashes. We'll see if this setup works better, we were getting kernel oops about once every 36 hours and I suspected the power and/or cooling in the 2U rack unit.
In case this doesn't work, I bought a 2Ghz Athlon uniprocessor and have been burning it in. If the current machine keeps crashing I'll declare that hardware flakey and switch over after getting some more ram (bkbits.net has 2GB).
