Kernel panic. unlikely that you will find anything in the logs because it requires a write to a log file buffer, then flush that buffer to disk. If you have a 2nd machine on your lan that you can run nc on, you can setup the troubled machine to write to the 2nd machine too. http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/netconsole.txt logging box: (IP 192.168.1.155) $ netcat -l -u -p 6666 trouble box: $ sudo modprobe netconsole netconsole="@/,@192.168.1.155/" Now when the trouble box panics, you should see the dump on the logging box. It will look something like the dumps shown here: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13075 This won't at all fix anything, but might give you a clue what is breaking. -- Carl K _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
