You don't happen to have a hard disk failing the smart test, do you? I had those exact symptoms (except in my case reboots were not so perfectly regular, but varying from 45min to 2 hours) and when I looked at the logwatch report mail, I found smart screaming away the "hard drive failing --- BACKUP DATA NOW!!!" mantra on a regular basis. I had no important data on it, but it was shared on the web, and whenever someone starts to read some file beyond some point a reboot occours instead of the read-write error. Once I unmounted that drive (I didn't bother to disconnect it physically) the reboots stopped. I still don't quite understand what was going on, but it doesn't anymore and I'm happy. :-) OTOH, maybe your problem is not related, but it can't hurt to check anyway. :-) HTH, :-) Marko -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
