NCR 53C825, with Quantam Atlas 2.1GB as the lone SCSI device, SiS chipset, Pentium-90. The only other device on PCI bus is video card (#9 GXE64 Pro). It's not predictable though, my guess is that it happens about 1/3 of the time. If the boot gets through the fsck stage, it will run fine for days. Otherwise, it will spew a river of errors and I need to open the lid and press the reset button. It always succeeds after the reset (or so it seems, I don't remember having to reset twice in a row).
