My experience has been that lockups occuring during heavy IO can be caused by aggressive memory timings. If your BIOS supports it, try increasing the memory timings. Also try the memory test script from here, but it does pretty much what you were describing...massive IO and memory bandwidth test: http://people.redhat.com/dledford/memtest.html -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
