Running the RCN 3.18-rc2-bone1 my system has rebooted several times over 
the weekend (EST).  This is not good for me - and I've been trying to 
figure out the root.  

I am porting a wifi sniffing app (802.11 monitor mode) that worked fine on 
a Ubuntu 12.04 LTS laptop using one USB plug (two interfaces, second one is 
type monitor) and two USB plugs (second plug configured as monitor 
otherbss).  I have a collection of wifi USB plugs on a 4-port USB hub; I 
control via wicd-cli or the dbus interface to wicd.  My target plug 
(Edimax) that worked on 12.04 do not have drivers on Wheezy 7.7.  I was 
planning on manually porting it's driver as the next step.

* The system runs fine when I'm not messing around with the plugs, changing 
the wifi properties, or sniffing.  When I do any of these the system 
occasionally silently reboots - I've been able to test up to 20 sniffing 
sessions before it reboots, sometimes it will reboot immediately when I 
start an monitor session.
* I run the BBB headless, generally using SSH xterm.
* The silent reboot happens with NO indication.  NOTHING.  The uart console 
just shows a system restart.
* I triggered a watchdog NMI (it takes 22 seconds) and it showed a lot of 
diagnostic info - so that's not it.
