It leads to these sort of problems. The kernel does panic from time to time. To repeat, this box was *completely unattended* for several weeks before the crash. No administration at all. I simply rsync'd things off it as necessary. As a non-root user. I am curious about the fact that /dev/sdd1 and /dev/sde1 were listed together in this lvm cache, and those are the two disks that normally get blasted every 6 months or so. That's an odd coincidence, and my best lead yet. -- http://www.subspacefield.org/~travis/ | if spammer then john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx "Computer crime, the glamor crime of the 1970s, will become in the 1980s one of the greatest sources of preventable business loss."
