gday mate, yep shes reproduceable.
i did it 3 times.


mount -t msdos /dev/da1s1 /mnt/usbmedia/cflash
cd /mnt/usbmedia/cflash
mkdir test1
cd test1
dmesg > xxx
cd ..
l


(l is alias ls -la in my .cshrc)

various other things triggered it as well.
I created a directory and removed it ok.
but when I created a file in the directory then backed
out to remove or or list it, then it fell over. but the
above steps kick the panic in every time I do it.
