Hmm. Could you do a
ls -lart /var/log
just after the mount has gone away. That will show you if there have
been any log files that have been modified recently. Then please do a
tail -20 /var/log/messages
(and similarly for any other files that have been modified recently).

At a guess, I'd say that there's either something wrong with the drive,
something wrong with the cable, or possibly with the motherboard.

Out of interest, what are /dev/hda and /dev/hdc? Is there anything else
on those two IDE channels?

Incidentally, you don't need the "defaults" in /etc/fstab, as long as
there's something else there. (You need *something* for the mount
options -- "defaults" is just a "do nothing" word to put there if you
haven't got any other mount options).

Hope this helps,

James.
