Two kernel Oopses in short time (22:35:59 and 22:50:00). But the computer was still alive until 00:00:00, where the daily cron jobs are started and then ... kernel panic, LED's where blinking   :(
kernel is 2.4.18, from SuSE's k_deflt-2.4.18-174 package (2.4.19-pre10aa2)
Please CC to r.ems@gmx.net, I'm not on the linux-kernel mailing list.
Thanks, Richard Ems
