I've tried 3 different kernels now. The same result for 2.6.26/27, only 2.6.25 is able to boot for some reason. I'm leaning towards a HW problem as well, but kinda need to narrow it down. The thing is that it hangs immediately. I don't get any real useful debugging information.

Hi All,
Is there a max number of slabs that can be used per kernel module? I'm having a tough time finding out that kind of information, but the array 'node_zonelists' (mmzone.h) has a size of 5. I just want to avoid buffer overruns and other bad stuff.
