Description
I have a Fedora Core 7 image that was working fine on VirtualBox 2.x and 3.2. I've recently exported the image and am running it on 4.0.8 and 4.2.4 -- where I now get kernel panics (about once every three days when running under heavy load). There's nothing that appears in the virtual box logs; it's strictly in the /var/log/messages on the guest. While I can't say confidently that the panic is always the same place, my recollection is that it's very similar (backtrace at the bottom).
contents of /var/log/messages from latest panic:

Which VirtualBox Guest Additions do you have installed? To me this looks like some guest kernel memory corruption.

Replying to frank:

I didn't realize that the Guest Additions weren't upward compatible. After reading your comment, I updated to the latest ones and things are a lot more stable.

Well, newer VBox versions should also run with older VBox Additions but newer Additions do also fix bugs in older Additions :) Pleas reopen if you still see these oopses with the new Additions installed.
Note: the kernel for fc7 is 2.6.23.17-88.fc7
