I would like to thank Pavel Machek for suggesting what appears
to be the cause of the hard freezes that I have been experiencing
under 2.1.93-95: kmod. By just rebuilding everything with kmod
deactivated, I seem to have a 2.1.95 configuration that is not
experiencing these hard freezes, at least in the forty-nine
minutes in which it has been running so far. I have made no other
changes whatsoever to my configuration: same hardware, same
"fully modularized" kernel configuration using an intial ramdisk,
etc.

I'll be doing some more experimentation now to see if my
changes to kmod are part of the problem, but I am sending this email
now so as to avoid having anyone else spend cycles wondering about
this problem.
