Kernel Panic - You need to restart your computer

Hi


Today, after updating to 10.7.4 have had two Kernel panics and the "You need to restart your computer" messages.


I also yesterday updated the firmware on the Iomega Network Hard Drive that I am using for my time machine back ups.


Below is a copy of one of the Kernel panic logs, unfortunately this really means very little to me. But does this provide any indication as to whether the error is being caused by the Time Machine backup or whether I should be looking elsewhere for a fix?
