If you didn't tried VM7 yet, please try directly VM8: ftp://e-mind.com/pub/andrea/kernel-patches/2.2.10_andrea-VM8.gz I removed the simple oom killer in it since I noticed that the bigger task may uninterruptible sleep in kernel mode... while we are sure that we'll be able to kill a faulting task. VM8 still avoids init to be killed (or to be remapped with bad pages). If it will work fine I'll provide also a little patch against 2.2.10 clean for kernel inclusion. Thanks.
