I will be watching because as I already posted I see the "exact" same instability problems with my:
Gigabyte GA-N700SL 2 Gig of Ram Raid1: 2 Seagate (ST3250410AS_6RY28WW1) SATA 250G drives in Raid 1 ATA: Maxtor_5T020H2_T2H34J2 as swap
I mean the *exact* same problems. Please do not forget to post any response you get from them. It also may be a kernel issue.

Let me know what else I can provide. I am not the only user affected by instability on Gigabyte boards. Per Jessen on the openSuSE list is likewise seeing the exact same issues. I am more than happy to provide whatever you need to see if we can solve this. This has happened regardless of the kernel version installed. Currently we have:

This is just strange and a huge pain when the server just sporadically just goes whacko. I'll post any additional information I can. Since this has occurred with both mandriva and opensuse, on different power supplies and with different ram and hardrives, it is pretty much limited to being a gigabyte motherboard problem.
Have you installed the latest (if any, ie) BIOS upgrade for this mobo?
Ciao.
Basil, There are several bios updates out there, but the descriptions associated with them don't seem to relate to any issue I have. I guess it couldn't hurt to try. If it all goes south, I'm only out a flaky gigabyte motherboard anyway. -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.
