Thanks for you support ;)

If you're right, the crash can be caused by a lot of different sources : 
maybe a bug in the ALI V IDE chipset, or in the ext3 code, or just my 
motheboard witch not handle correctly very big hard drive (a 80Gb UDMA100 
Seagate disc) and so on...

So what sould i do now ??? reporting a bug to Linus ?

I didn't looked at the code (not enough time to handle a so big projet !) 
but that what I thinked ;)
