Greetings;

Machine is a new Biostar M7NCD-Pro mobo, with an athlon
2800 XP that says its a 2800 in the bootup so it not
overclocked, nor is it too warm, showing 125F right now.
It did take some non-default bios settings to achieve that,
the default running the memory as DDR333, but the cpu as
a 3200+, which understandably didn't always want to post!

Kernel is 2.6.8-rc2, with the forcedeth driver using the
builtin ethernet on this board.  The mobo has a Gig of ram
which signs on in the bios as
"DDR400 Dual Channel Mode Enabled (etc)"

I just re-entered the room from a few hours of other work,
and found this machine had apparently crashed.  I was not
able to ssh into it from the firewall, or make it respond
to the vulcan nerve pinch, so I hit the reset button and
waited for about 120G of hard drives to fsck.

This is the 2nd, or maybe the third time this has happened
since I put in this new mobo, which passes a half a days run
on memtest86 with no errors.  I *think* I've got the APIC
stuff turned off in the bios, and I'm not using it in the
kernel as I want this box to run 24/7.

The only screen blanker is a blank, black screen.

This is the only log entries made at what must have been its
untimely demise:

-----------------------
Previously, there was nothing in the logs at all, so this
trail is a first.

Is there anything of interest here?  What else can I supply
that might help aim a finger at something besides the operator,
who wasn't even in the room at the time :)
