Hi I have a similar problem with my System. About 40 Minutes after the start of a long self test my system crashes. I couldn't see any problems in the logs or on the screen, because the system hangs completely. No messages left on the screen, maybe I couldn't deactivate the screen saver?
I changed the complete Mainboard, CPU, RAM and other things because of this problem, but nothing helps. My old board uses an K7-Kernel, my new one uses an 686-Kernel. So I changed the Kernel without changing the problem. If I disable the long self tests I have no problems anymore. Some time ago it works perfectly with the long self tests, I didn't knew when it starts. Maybe after a smartmontools-upgrade or so?
