Take out ``options DIAGNOSTIC'', or stop running X. The problem is your machine panic's, but you don't see it 'cos you're running X. It seems that `options DIAGNOSTIC' claims that a packet is passed through the networking code without valid headers, or somesuch (I barely remember the details, sorry). I found this out before 2.1.5 was released, but didn't have the time to go digging and produce more information, sorry.
