I upgraded my AMD K6-3 400 with 380Mb RAM from server 8.04 LTS to Jaunty, and had been experiencing the hangs about once a day, but then with increasing regularity, to the point at which it hung about 4 times in the space of a couple of hours.

Based on suggestions earlier in this thread, I added the boot parameters "noapic nolapic acpi=off" on Monday afternoon, and I've not had a problem since.
