I can't tell you what's wrong, but I would suggest you make plans to
get to a journaling filesystem "real soon now."  After about the 3rd
hangup in a row, I lost my ext2 system and had to start over (about 8
months ago).  I moved everything to reiserfs and have never looked
back.  Experimenting with ext3 now.

With reiserfs, you won't loose the farm, but you may loose some in
flight files.

My $.02.
