Because my server hung when is overloaded during network & hdd operations. My network card, Lance PCnet/PCI-II, is a busmastering device, and I think that my system hang during a _concurrent_ DMA operations, big network transfers and massive hdd operations. If I disable hdd DMA operations (hdparm -d 0 /dev/hda), the system works well.
