machine lockups and kernel panic
Twice in the last week I've woken up to a locked-up dead potato machine and had to hit the power switch. I happened to have a window at work logged in to my home machine, and found these messages showing that it probably died at 5am due to a kernel panic. Does anybody know what this means and why it would happen in the middle of the night? The debian cron jobs don't start until after 6am. I'm running kernel 2.2.17 built from potato debs. timshel:~$ Message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] at Wed Oct 4 05:10:40 2000 ... timshel kernel: Kernel panic: VFS: LRU block list corrupted Message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] at Wed Oct 4 05:11:14 2000 ... timshel kernel: Kernel panic: VFS: LRU block list corrupted ...RickM...
