    	Dear Sir or Madam,
    
    I am using blcr-0.7.3 to checkpoint MPI jobs, compiled either
    with MVAPICH2-1.2rc2 or OpenMPI-1.3b1. In both cases,
    checkpointing is apparently working, but restart ends
    with a kernel oops on each node running a MPI process (see below).
    The kernel oops is similar when using OpenMPI or MVAPICH2, I thus 
    suspect that the problem comes from blcr.
    I am running Linux Fedora 8 with a 2.6.26 Fedora x86_64 kernel.
    Each node has two Dual Core AMD Opteron Processors 285 with 8 GBytes
    of memory, Infiniband DDR, and the OFED-1.4-rc3 stack.
    
    Any help will be appreciated.
    
    Best regards
    
    Dominique Delande
