I used to have a small system with 96M RAM and no swap, only OpenSSH
and bash and some kernel threads were running, when I got a big BK
pull, it would catch sig 11 and die. Maybe this is unrelated.
Indeed, at first I had only 64M RAM installed, only after some sig
11, had I got more RAM installed. But this probably has nothing to
do with your situation.
