Question comm: mysqld Not tainted ... Kernel Panic , System totally unresponsive

The kernel is not supposed to panic under any circumstances, there's no "normal" circumstances beyond a hardware failure or kernel bug that should cause one. As such, there's no magic technique for avoiding potential kernel panics. Try upgrading your kernel.

Issue resolved. BAD ... BAD MEMORY, after removing one if the DIMM's, the server no longer crashes.

I wonder how memtest passed the Memory !!!!

did you actually run memtest86 or memtest86+ or did you rely on the BIOS address test? A BIOS address test will not resolve issues like you describe. Memtest86+, run for several hours has never failed in identifying bad RAM for me.
