Hi,

I checked another 20 tonight (35-55). No freezing, but there are timing
differences. I then retried 27 and 29 to confirm that they did not show
any effect. This time, they led to normal reboots! I swear that I didn't
mess up on that one. Yesterday, they did not lead to reboots. But maybe
the problem is that it seems very hard to reproduce the crash behaviour:
The timing of the first crash, for example, always varies. When I try to
enter the notes folder, it takes something between and eye blink and a
second before the screen turns dark. Then I had the two files that did
not work yesterday, but today. What does that mean? Can the overflow
occur in a non-deterministic memory environment, leading to such
different effects? I hope this is helpful to anybody.
