I've had this type of crash as well. Are you using NFS? As a NFS
client,
I can get my machine to lockup almost every time after loading the
machine
with copying files from an NFS server, then typing a few simple commands
on the NFS client. See my previous posting for full details. After my
lockup, I can ping the machine. The SYSRQ keys do work. Are you
running
SMP?
