If I am connected to my Challenge S server via serial console using 
minicom from Linux and minicom dies (eg - the X server where minicom was 
running from crashes), the Challenge box resets. I haven't done really 
extensive testing but this error is definitely recreatable.

My current kernel is 2.4.5. I compiled it myself from CVS but I'm pretty 
sure this also happened with the precompiled 2.4.3 kernel from the oss 
ftp site.
