You could probably do this with DTrace's anonymous tracing feature. For example, you could use a 'tick-300s' probe to fire and call the panic() action (making sure to specify the 'destructive' option.) This sets up the possibility of having a box that always reboots after 5 minutes, so you'd want to remove the anonymous tracing as part of the script. Note that I haven't tried this myself. Chad
