IIRC I had just mounted my Linux filing systems. In particular I had just mounted a second ext2 filing system at a mount point within the first. After a few seconds the machine just spontaeneously rebooted without syncing. I didn't lose any files, though. I've just tried mounting them again and after a short interval got a load of panic messages and a reboot... Again, no files were lost. I'm not using SMP. My last make world was yesterday (the 22nd). -- alex@hayward.u-net.com; xelah@ferret.lmh.ox.ac.uk To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
