I was able to avoid the system freeze by entering the BIOS setup utility and disabling almost all integrated peripherals: usb, eth0, serial and parallel port, game/midi port, audio subsystem.

The PATA subsystem was not disabled, and a 80GB disk (the system disk) was attached to it.

I have since loaded the system with heavy I/O on the three sata disks, and everything is running fine.

As soon as I have the time, I want to repeat the tests by enabling one peripheral at a time to hopefully find the culprit...
