I could also reproduce this issue with Ubuntu 8.10 2.6.27 server kernel.
Apparently it uses some older version of the 2.0.x branch of the atl2
drivers (As far I remember 2.0.3).
One "solution" to this issue would be upgrading to the 2.6.28 kernel
which uses a more recent version of the atl2 driver (2.2.3). There no
debian packages available for that one yet - make_kpkg got me a nice
build though with no issues so far. Performance is not that great as it
was before (2.2.3 ~7,5 mb/s, 2.0.3: ~11mb/s read/write speeds using
samba) but at least it won't crash every now and then.
