Linux hangs on nVidia nForce2 400 Ultra

Hi chaps!

My system hangs (no oops, nothing) on disk access using either 2.4.23 or 2.6.0. A rather reliable way for me to
crash it is to, for example, copy the sources of the Linux kernel.

It hanged once on CD-ROM access, which could lead to a more IDE-level problem. Also, the only time it did it in
another operating system (humm...) was after it crashed in Linux and I pressed reset (no shut down), which
makes me think it could the IDE controller [driver]'s fault...

It seems I'm the only one on Earth to have this problem (according to Google), but if there was a way to track it
down I'd be happy to try.

I have attached my 2.6.0 kernel config for info.

Thanks!
Hervé.
