I checked the serial port log (I log the serial console from another machine, to be sure to get these kinds of bugs even if they hit the network and/or SCSI subsystems), and the only thing is that cron seems to have segfaulted a time. This is unusual, but I take it it shouldn't crash the kernel in itself (and it might be due to the result of some glibc up- and downgrading around that time). /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
