The other 10% it give a 'fault on nofault entry' panic. Have you ruled out faulty hardware? Do you get the same fault if you run with the same disk on another machine?

If you can reproduce on other hardware and other installs, it's probably best to go that way. If it isn't reproducable I'd guess at a hardware-dependent problem - that'll be much harder. It might even be just a single case of faulty hardware. Eivind.
