Ongoing Saga Dell PE1850 - FreeBSD 6.0 Release Freezups.

[Brown, Steve]

Does your system in question use a SATA hard drive(s)?  I've had similar
issues with no logs or any errors whatsoever and when I switched from SATA
to IDE drives on the same system (it had both SATA and IDE connections) the
problem disappeared completely.

It is a single processor, duel core Xenon. Hyperthreading has been turned 
off in the BIOS after about the thrird crash. APCI has been disabled in FBSD
