The why it rebooted is obvious (keyboard chair interface failure), it's the what happened after that didn’t make sense.

I checked the grub version, and it wasn't updated: > apt list | grep grub | grep install grub-common/oldstable,now 2.02~beta3-5+deb9u2 amd64 [installed] grub-efi-amd64/oldstable,now 2.02~beta3-5+deb9u2 amd64 [installed] grub-efi-amd64-bin/oldstable,now 2.02~beta3-5+deb9u2 amd64 [installed,automatic] grub2-common/oldstable,now 2.02~beta3-5+deb9u2 amd64 [installed,automatic] and: apt list --upgradable | grep grub comes up empty. It looks like grub.cfg got rebuilt in Jan when I last ran: apt update/upgrade (Jan31'21), but the inputs in /etc/grub.d are original to the install (Oct'18). My only point is grub doesn't appear to have been updated since it last booted cleanly, which is why I was asking for ideas about what might have happened. I've got a similar spare machine on older hardware I'll have to fire up and play with that to see what I can uncover. > P.S.: devuan/debian routers are great!!! I've been doing this sort of thing since maybe RedHat 7, so yeah, I agree. I found Devuan when I tried to update my box to Centos7 and ran into systemd.
