Yes (as someone else said, they're filesystem types, not partition
types), but if there is a hardware issue, as John noted, ext3 or ext4
won't solve the problem.  xfs is usually fairly solid, so it is very
unlikely that the filesystem type is a problem.

You should probably run memtest86+ for at least 24 hours to see if
that's an issue.  If that doesn't find anything, you should probably
investigate your storage system (as John also mentioned, hard drives and
drive controller would both be suspects).
