efs-1.5 has an infinite recursion bug, for which a patch was posted
to this list. It's a trivial fix, as the bug was just a typo. Have
you applied the patch?
Otherwise: What version of emacs are you using?
Any details on how emacs crashed?
Error messages?
Are you using a gateway?
Without a few more clues, this is going to hard to fix. Unless you've
hit the inf. recursion bug, I don't think that anybody else has had
this problem.
