Looks like a initialization order problem in procfs:
diff -u --recursive --new-file v2.3.99-pre6/linux/fs/proc/generic.c linux/fs/proc/generic.c
--- v2.3.99-pre6/linux/fs/proc/generic.c Tue Apr 11 15:09:23 2000

static void proc_kill_inodes(struct proc_dir_entry *de)

struct list_head *p;

+ struct super_block *sb = proc_mnt->mnt_sb;
This patch kills the kernel, proc_kill_inodes is called with proc_mnt
being NULL. Can someone who knows procfs better than me please fix it?
