I gave kernel-smp-2.6.8-1.520 a test run on my desktop before putting it 
on the server, and the kernel crashes on boot with an NFS error. I guess 
that that won't be a problem on the server, as the server isn't an NFS 
client. I'm not sure if it's the same bug which caused the 2.6.8.1 release.

BTW.... Is there any easy way to record the stack trace, etc from kernel 
crashes?  Or do you have to use pen & paper?
