Yes that's right.  No ssh, no response to pings.  System is completely
unresponsive to anything but hard power down or reset button.

Thanks that's exactly the info I was looking for.  I have a serial cable
somewhere (once networked an old 486 over it via PPP or SLIP or
something 'cos I couldn't get hold of an ISA ethernet card).  Will see
if it yields any useful info next crash (although still no problems with
the "nv" driver).
