2.2.x system freeze, no ZIP

Hi there.
Lately, i was trying 2.2.1ac7, which shortly after booting froze up my
system. I had to powercycle (no ping reply, no effect on keys, etc.)
The same happened repeatedly with 2.2.2ac1.
And, to my surprise, with 2.0.37pre6(!).
I'm now running plain 2.0.36 for 5 days without a single problem.

I can't see any real connection between those freezes, except that I
was playing mp3's and editing files using vim.

I'm willing to test plain 2.2.2 or an earlier 2.0.37pre if someone
can tell me a way how to get at least *some* info after a freeze -
so far linux didn't tell me much about it :]

My setup:
Nothing special except for an AWE64 PnP.
Grafic card is S3 ViRGE.

My config:
