I don't have SELinux enabled on my spacewalk instance so my
environment is not the same... I cannot say I have ever seen anything
as extreme a kernel panic on that box however. Unfortunately without
any logs I think this will be hard,if not impossible, to troubleshoot.

Is this on physical hardware or a virtual machine for a start?
