2. A Fileserver with an ABIT Hotrod 66 (htp366) controller will crash within
5-60 minutes after boot with a 2.4.x kernel. 2.2.x works fine. No other
exotic hardware. Another possibility might be Reiserfs, which I use for all
partitions except /.
I have no experience with kernel debugging, but so far, I have found no log
entry giving me a hint and the screen is blank after the crash. There might
have been some output before, but the machine is in the basement and too
important for excessive testing.
I have tried 2.4.2 and 2.4.3 once each.
