The machine crashes? With no OOPS? Is the machine SMP? If so, does the
problem still happen if you run in UP mode? Either way, try compiling with
the Magic SysRq feature (in kernel hacking) and when you get the lockup do
the SysRq + O to cause an OOPS.. and then decode it... this will
(hopefully?) show us where it's at.
