This may be entirely unrelated, but the first (and only, so far) time I
tried a 2.1.8 kernel it locked the machine up solid in about 15 minutes.
I suspect the IDE driver, because the hard disk light was on when it died,
but I didn't see any messages (because I was running X) so I could be
entirely wrong there.
I will try to reproduce it later in such a way that I can grab the
messages.
