One of my dataless boxes (pre15) locks up completely, but not in a
matter of hours but days. Network was the second bet because I
suspected the aha1542 getting rusty. Exchanging the Surecom
301 in wd-mode (which has proven to lose a bit of the hw addr at
times) to an SMC Ultra didn't improve anything. Nevertheless, I'll try
the arp -s trick now, watching it for a while. Bad luck the box is so
dead after the freeze...
Could you try 'nice -n -20 ping -f defaultgateway or broadcast-addr'
for some minutes and see if it happens? I know, it's mean... It brings
down a Surecom of equal type in the server within minutes. Reinit the
interface including rm/insmod wd.o won't help. No logs.
Btw, what type of switch/hub/router are you using?
