You may or may not already have done that and it may not be of any help what so ever to you.
But on my IBM 326e I had the same problem with the bge0 where my server just freeze and nothing on the screen, etc. Just had to power cycle to get it back.
All was solve for me when I upgraded the firmware for the bge from the IBM site as well as the BIOS.
It may not be worth anything to you, but I would suggest to check if there isn't a bge firmware upgrade for your board like there was one for me and may be at the same time check the latest BIOS if you haven't done it already.
For what it's worth anyway, it did work for me. Hope it does for you too.
