Ok, story goes, with:

Linux smeg.mswinxp.net 2.4.12-ac5 #1 Tue Oct 23 18:31:51 BST 2001 i686
unknown

My box was running fine with this kernel, but the max uptime I can get is
about 4-5 days before I get a error that locks the box up tight because it
appears that the drive fails. The drive is fine. I do not believe this is a
hardware fault as the drive is not that old and has worked with months of
uptimes before.

So, here's the stats... If you need anything more, mail me...
