Hi,

at first, tell me something about your system. What does crash mean?
Is your hardware (controllers, harddisks) ok? To locate the problem
try to get the systemlog (look at /var/log/messages or syslog). You can
read this by starting a linux from cd (look at www.knopper.net). After you
have done this you can see the message including your problem.
Then tell us the problem.
