See if it's the same with a one-piece kernel.

I do.  It's OK if I don't work it too hard, reading CDROMS and
reading/writing ZIPs it will run all day but if I work it harder it on
faster drives it eventually hangs anytime between 1 second and 1/2 an hour
of use. I spent ages on it and came to the conclusion it is a (known)
zorro bus arbitration problem or possibly a flaw in the CSPPC arbitration.

Don't know much about scripts but are the 770 scripts the same as the 710
scripts ?
