I am using FreeBSD 2.2.2 on a Pentium 133 machine with 32 meg ram and 2
2.5 gig Western Digital IDE hard drives.  I have Windows NT Workstation
4.0 on the first drive (wd0) and FreeBSD on the second (wd1).  

Occasionally, when I attempt use ls, finger, uptime and other commands I
get the following in the message log.  I also get, in white text, a
message similar to the below (I wasn't in X and didn't know a way to
save it).  The system locks up for about 30 seconds when this happens
(ie. alt-F2 won't switch terminals, nor will any commands work). 

Is this a problem with my drive or some kind of misconfiguration?  If a
misconfiguration, what can I do about it?
