After a while the quota system was running out of sync. This shouldn't be a problem, so I decided to turn off quota for a while and rescan my files... When running the quotaoff utility, it suddenly segfaulted and my /home was 'dead'. I also noticed that the load of my box was rising very high. After a few minutes the whole server was 'dead'. This is already the second time it occures, with a 2.6.7 kernel and with a 2.6.11 one. I have no clue if it has something to do with the SMP stuff. Also, I didn't manage to get an crash/oops/whatever log, sorry. If anyone has seen the same problem or has any idea howto solve this problem, or howto get more debugging information, please let me know. - Jan [having a dead box:] -- Smets Jan jan@smets.cx
