>Description:
The box: ASUS TUSL2-C motherboard, Intel 1100MHz Celeron/Tualatin CPU, Kingston 512MB PC133 SDRAM, Seagate ATA-100 harddisk

Under heavy CPU load, the machine locks up completely. No panics, no traps, no debugger, just halts silently, and I have to press the [RESET] button...

I can't even compile a kernel - it's 100% reproduceable. However, I can't reproduce this on any other boxes, I have several NetBSD-2 machines in production - even with the same TUSL2-C motherboard! 

Tried with and without ACPI, with and w/o APIC, BIOS updates, etc.

This box is rock solid with 1.6.2. Any idea?
