That's a `grep -v ...'. Often built up in stages, e.g.
less /var/log/pacman.log
grep -v ' installed ' /var/log/pacman.log | less
grep -v ' installed ' /var/log/pacman.log |
grep -v 'Running build hook:' | less
grep -v ' installed ' /var/log/pacman.log |
grep -v 'Running build hook:' |
grep -v '==>' | less
That's just an example, but the point is: you look, work out what to
discard, discard it, GOTO 10.

I was hoping once you had a time of things going wrong, you'd find a
cron job being run around then. :-) As Keith said, Linux doesn't give
up on swap partitions easily; I/O errors are all I can think of.
Cheers, Ralph.
