I think there is some problem in the APUS kernel, servicing
interrupts maybe, that has never been solved. It does not
evidenty show up except with certain hardware combinations;
like mine I'm afraid. :)

I haven't tryed APUS in awhile but I always had trouble with
freezes and lockups expecially after pushing any kind of
sustained disk activity.  When I installed NETBSD I never
noticed such problems. Of course at the time there was no
PPC port done.
(OT) That reminds me.  I need to check to see if the NETBSD folks
ever got the PowerUP port done.
