Did it, nothing going wild.

A few things I should add: Because of a misconfiguration it was
running the SCSI bus at 40 MHz, when we corrected it and went to 80 MHz
the hangups dropped, it was hanging twice or more a week. The cables and
termination were replaced, as part of one of our tests.
Another thing, the general consensus here is that the problem is that
we are using RedHat, which I do not agree, after all basically it's all
the same software. Does anyone know of documentation I can use to
support or drop my argument, besides a distribution comparison?
Thanks,
Darío
