Help, my SLS1.03 system keeps crashing. I know, I probably should
have waited for an official announcement, but it's too late now :-(

The worst problem is that the system totally locks up within 5
to 15 minutes of when it is booted. No kernel panic messages,
no nothing. It even happens if I only boot the system and do
nothing else. If I leave it alone for more than 10min, it is
locked up when I come back. previous kernel versions 99.6 and 99.9
have worked fine and I never had a crash before now.

486/33 V-com ISA board (UL 486 MB)
8MB ram (8 1-MB simms)
AMI bios (1991)
Prospectra gold local bus video
105MB seagate (master) IDE drive (w dos)
120MB maxtor (slave) IDE drive w/linux
3c503 ethernet card

The networking isn't working either. I set it up the same way
as I did in SLS1.02, but remote pings just hang. This is the
least of my problems now, however.

Sorry for the little amount of info, I really have no idea
what is causing the crash.
