Description

Before that crash there was about 4MB memory free and I was untaring a big file. I'm not sure if it is a real bug. 

PANIC: ASSERT FAILED (src/system/kernel/fs/vfs.cpp:672): vnode->ref_count == 0 && vnode->busy

Priority: normal → critical

Seems like a vnode with reference count > 0 ended up in the unused vnodes list. That's not healthy.

Fixed in hrev22209.
