Before you start tweaking voltages and replacing PSUs you better test your

your old machine for a day or so.

Personally I usually remove all memory modules and then test one at a time
overnight with memtest 86+.  If it gives any errors at all I would send it
back to the shop.

If they all pass, then voltage and PSU issues will need to be looked at.

Good luck.

This appears to be a corrupt file somewhere.  This is the current uptime:

root@fireball / # uptime
 08:22:57 up 16:02,  4 users,  load average: 0.12, 0.11, 0.13
root@fireball / #

It was rebooting after a couple hours or so before. All I have done so far is basically the same as a emerge -e world. I used the script thing tho. I did the first few hundred packages from a USB stick. Anyway, it appears to be working fine. I'm hoping it stays that way too. I don't want to be chasing down flakey hardware. I like having hair.

That said, I'm going to reboot, by choice, just to make sure everything loaded is new. If it lasts until tomorrow, maybe this is fixed. I hope.

Thanks to all for the help.  Will post results tomorrow.
