Another datapoint:
I installed 2.2.12 on two servers, both Pentium Celeron 433/128K cache, 256MB ram, no IDE, no floppy, no sound, text only console, on board Adaptec 2990 Ultra2Wide SCSI, 1 WD 18300 LVD Ultra2 Wide SCSI drive 18GB and onboard Realtek 100-base-t ethernet. All of this is on the motherboard with a passive backplane.
One ISA 3Com 515 ethernet card.
One server had no problem, the other locked up hard, requiring a manual fsck. Thereafter it crashed and rebooted every few minutes.
Unfortunately these have no heads, being co-located, however I was able to install 2.2.13Pre6 patch from Alan's directory and the problem disappeared completely.
I do have the LVS (Linux Virtual Server/LinuxDirector) patch applied also. It's working great except I'm having trouble keeping the loopback aliases from generating ARP replies... (The subject of my next message.)
