Same crashes here!  Asus P4T mobo, intel case & PS.

I am running FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE on that computer (P4/1.5G, 384 RAM, 
two Seagate disks, 40G each, most of them mirrored via vinum.

One person can constantly crash this machine using a Win2k laptop to
copy some large (~600M) files via Samba.  With both disks in the mirror,
the machine freezes solid after about two-three files being copied.
Time spent in interrupts is about 20-28% and the drives are writing at
about 8-9M/s when the hang occurs.  I tried once with the second drive
out of the mirror (vinum stop), and the machine crashed later (after
some 10-20 files being copied).  The disk was still doing 8-9M/s.

I have tried swapping NICs, changed fxp0 for rl0 (not a brilliant idea,
I know), and the machine still hangs. (actually this got IRQ time from
5-10% during copying to 20-25%)

Attached you will find the (slightly edited) dmesg from the machine.

The CDROM drive is single on the secondary IDE channel, so I do not know
what the problem with ata1-slave (nonexistent) is.
