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?
