It seems the problem is caused by some DMA related bug in the VIA chipset
and/or in the Linux DMA-IDE VIA driver.
I finnaly get rid of the freezes, by simply compiling the kernel completely
without IDE-DMA support. Now hdparm shows disks do not use DMA and
the system is stable, as far as I can say
hrough a web
archive and will try to respond, if needed.
Thanks for your work !
