[ltp] Machine Freeze up

[Tod Harter]

Well, those are the types of crashes that I just write off to "unknown 
factors", unless it happens again. My A20p for instance just locked up hard 
yesterday. I was burning a CD. Normally the drive ejects the disk, but 
yesterday instead it decided to crash the machine... Its unusual, but it 
happens. Probably some driver disabled interrupts or failed to unmask an IRQ 
for some reason. Its pretty hard to say for sure with the complexity of 
modern hardware and OS.
