Not too bad. I've been running my BP6 on a 2.3.42 kernel for six days
without a crash. Not quite sure what I've changed though - because
previous to that, it was crashing left, right and center during heavy load
(an "ab -c 300 -n 10000 http://localhost/test.php3" command would hang it
straight away)
I moved my IBM-DJNA-371350 from the HPT366 controller to the onboard
UDMA33 one, - that's about it.
BTW, where are people getting recent BP6 BIOS's ? Very few versions can
be gotten here: http://www.abit.nl/english/download/index.htm
