    That could be either a hardware or a kernel issue. The address 0f0f0f0f may
    mean something to the people on the linux-kernel mailing list, I suggest that
    you post a message there giving all possible details of the crash including
    the output of "ksymoops". Here is the email address:

    <linux-kernel@vger.redhat.com>

    I have done extensive bonnie++ runs on the test8 kernel without any problems,
    which doesn't mean it's not a kernel bug (maybe means that it's a bug that's
    difficult to track down).

    Can you reproduce the results on another machine?
