I've been running RedHat/SGI 2.4.2 and 2.4.3 kernels with 0
crashes. I'd point your finger at the distro instead.
Linux just doesn't have the time to test his kernels on every
platform. That's where the distro comes in. Some distros release
often and include the latest, others release several revisions back
with months of run-time on them.

That's because it is 2 years old! Trust me, 2.2.x had issues well
into 2.2.teens. Depends on what you were using. kNFS sucked bad
until 2.2.18 (or RedHat 2.2.14).
