   System locks up after running a short time.  Had it hang once during 
installation.  Tried both Reiserfs and EXT3.

We need more details about the lockup.  Does the whole system lock up,
or just the array.
Can  you get
   alt-sysrq-T
output?  That might be useful.

Also, try to set up netconsole and boot with nmi_watchdog=2. I've now 3
completely different HW setups where 2.6.25 hangs due to HPET issues.
