Actually I'm seeing the same, but my network connection is through the ISDN card. I was suspecting the problem to be in isdn4bsd, but now this got me thinking. I usually see the problem when I just connected to the internet and my mail starts flowing in (I use UUCP over TCP) and I start a SSH session at the same time (so I get a lot of network _and_ disk traffic). I was trying to debug this, but it is really hard, because I'm always working under X and I don't see anything on the console and don't get a kernel crash dump at all. One of these days I'll borrow a terminal and make the serial port the console. But for now, I don't have the slightest idea on how to go about debugging this.
