A month ago I asked:

Please excuse the long delay for this summary but I still have no
real solution. It seems that my problem is away if

- enabling only 1 processor (not acceptable :-()

    or if

- not using tmpfs filesystems like /tmp.

Without tmpfs my system is running now 6 days without a crash!! :-)
