Comment 57 for bug 297058

As I'm using an eeebox without dvd-drive, I cannot put a disc in to fix this problem.

But I've found this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/383632 which basically tells you to kill the udev process.

I have done that, and my box has been running for 13 days now without freezing. I'm a bit reluctant to call this a "solution" because I've had long periods earlier where everything seemed fine, and suddenly it started freezing every other day again.

I will report back when the box has run some more time or if it freezes again. But strange that the udev process would cause sata drives to fail...
