Public bug reported:
1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System ->
About Ubuntu.
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy packagename'
or by checking in Synaptic.

3) What you expected to happen
I expect my PowerBook G4 to remain stable and not crash spontaneously
jeopardising my RAID1.
4) What happened instead
The machine becomes unresponsive, completely locks up and spontaneously
restarts without shutting down properly.
5) Context
This machine is setup as a AFP fileserver (Netatalk 2.0.4 patched for
ssl details below) and when I'm copying large amounts of data (tens of
Giga Bytes) to it the machine crashes. Syslog (attached) shows
tens/hundreds of records like:
Nov 12 22:57:30 pulga-PBG4 kernel: [98348.660840] eth0: RX MAC fifo overflow
smac[00845822].

6) Plead
Please help. I've invested hundreds of hours into learning
linux/ubuntu to set up a scalable storage system (RAID through AFP) and
if this bug persists I can not trust the stability of my data.
I'm new to linux/ubuntu so if I'm missing something I'm happy to pay for
support. I think this is a real bug though...
