What motherboard are you using? There are lots of us throwing out our
Tyan S2466 based systems as fast as we can. After a while they start
exhibiting the behavior you're seeing (hard locks (no OOPS available)) at
random times that are very hard to diagnose/resolve.
See the beowulf list archives for a fair bit of discussion of this.
