Ummmm... maybe you have a _slight_ conflict in some of your hardware stuff there... bad coolers (45% less possible if you said 2.0.xx kernels were stable) or there might be a hidden bug in a new 2.2 driver... It will be more useful if you post your h/w configuration :)

I just can't understand your anger... As a matter of fact I'm using 2.2 from its "pre" stages and didn't blow my system up at all. Only the 2.2.0-pre6 vfat bug made me cry for a 3Gigs amount of lost data but that's life and, after all, backup product vendors should earn their money in a honest way, don't you think ? Anyhow, my system is even overclocked, stuffed to death with weird components (different scsi controllers, cdwriter, 1 voodoo card, 2 pci NICs,a scsi and ide hdd) making NT and win9x die like bastards :-X and Linux is _very_ stable on it :)
Stefan.
