I never have had problems like this with either 2.02 or 2.20 - this
machines runs and runs without problems.  Sometimes we loose power
2-3 times a week, and nstar reboots, checks all the file systems 
and comes back up in around 25 minutes (we have lots of file systems
to check)..

ISC here on nstar is very solid - but on the same machine - 
Intel release 4.0 (2.0) is another ballgame --
