Same problem for me also... system will randomly freeze. I was using Gutsy. Spent a lot of time trying to figure out what the issue was. I thought it might be related to a TSC drift related problem, but it is inconclusive. I also recently tried installing Arch Linux with kernel 2.6.22, and it froze during a pacman upgrade.
I also have Win XP on a partition and it works fine... maybe it's most likely something in the kernel?! This is incredibly frustrating...
