Bahhh linux rocks !!

must be your install or your hardware
either its got early development drivers or
you have some serious hardware problems
are you overclocking ?

i had big problems with Mdk 8.1 it used to crash on
a Cyrix 200 every 3-8 days on me now i have a 2.4.14
and a custom RH7.2 install and it was up for 30 days until
last night which it came down because i needed the sound
card out of it.

along with a few 486's and a P233 and an Athlon 1.2 Ghz
i have seen them all with uptimes > 100 days
