I get from time to time the message in the Subject and if I do something that uses the disk somewhat more it just reboots without any warning. (for example if I use fsck or I type sync a lot when untarring .. ) Anyway the hardware configuration is like this: 2 X PIII 667MHz MB chipset VIA VT82C693A/694x SMP board 512MB 2 Intel Etherexpress 82557 and the scsi adapter: scsi0 : Adaptec AIC7XXX EISA/VLB/PCI SCSI HBA DRIVER, Rev 6.2.8 aic7892: Ultra160 Wide Channel A, SCSI Id=7, 32/253 SCBs Vendor: QUANTUM Model: ATLAS10K2-TY184L Rev: DA40 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 03 scsi0:A:0:0: Tagged Queuing enabled.
