unfortunately I cannot reproduce the panic
this way. What I did was:

# cd /etc/periodic/daily
# for file in `ls`
do
echo $file
./$file
done

I run it twice, I could see all scripts
executing one after another,
but no panic.
Perhaps something else is happening at
the same time as daily scripts?
But I cannot find what.

Thanks
