I just got a new 400 GB external Seagate hard drive connected by USB2 or Firewire. The problem is, randomly while running faubackup backup at night via cron, the system locks up with a kernel panic that I can't scroll back on because it's too long and USB keyboards stop working after panic. No output to system logs. Running manually causes the hard drive to lock up the system about 2 out of 3 times. Is there a way to get this undesired behavior to stop, short of going without any backup?
