First, what is the config-register set to on that MSFC? Is that why a reload is causing it to go to ROM monitor? (should probably be 0x2102) In other words, are these two seperate issues? Is it returning to monitor any time it relaods. or just after this failure?
As far as the Nortel router causing an MSFC reload to begin with because of an OSPF topology change... Reconvergence shouldn't cause this, but... Since you provided no version info, you might want to use the Bug Toolkit to see if you can find an issue with OSPF causing reloads on your version of code. Also, does the MSFC indicate the reason for the reload when you do a 'show ver'? Is there a crashinfo file that the MSFC saved? If so, it will likely show the specific cause and you can research thast also.
