I don't know yet what is causing this issue. I have a bootcamp installed Windows 8.1 and I was having no issue even after updating to El Capitan and now I got a BSOD on Windows twice (when I tried to access a SD card and when I tried to open some file directly from the Mac OS X partition). So until then, the BSOD was restricted to Windows and now I`m getting some crashing also on Mac OS X.
I have also VMware Fusion Professional Version 8.0.2 (3164312) installed using bootcamp partition as a virtual machine. Don't know if it can be related to the issue.
Anyway, is someone getting the same problem and can help me to fix that?

Best Answer
I recently had the same frequent reboot problem on a newer macbook pro running the latest El Capitan. The screen would just go black then a white apple logo would appear. Log back into the system and a kernel panic message would be presented.
It turns out that the Spotlight index database had been corrupted. Not certain as to how the database got corrupted, perhaps software installs with large file and directory numbers.
The corruption was corrected by using System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy to remove the existing spotlight database. When you get into the Spotlight Privacy window no existing directory or drive will be present.
This should solve the corrupted Spotlight database and the reboot/kernel panic should not occur.
