I am having a strange problem with one of my computers and I am not able to discover where is the problem. Maybe someone on the list have had a similar experience...
The computer aparently is running normally but suddenly it reboot itself without any warning or message.
Sometimes it happen whan I am not at home so when I arrive I found the computer at the initial boot prompt, but also a couple of times the computer have reboot while I was working on it.
CPU: AMD XP 1800+ Motherboard: QDI KuDoz 7 RAM: 512MB 2 SCSI HDs 2 IDE HDs Distro: Caldera Openlinux 3.1.1
At the beginning I though that the problem was because of the temperature (BIOS Health Control) so I tested different setting but still the problem is there from time to time. (Now the Health Control is disable but still I get the problem from time to time). Here is summer and temperatures inside could be around 30� C (Outside temperature yesterday around 36� C).
The problem is that I can not find any messages or hint about the problem in any of the files at /var/log/ subdirectory or any other place.
I wonder if there is any log file or similar that could keep valuable information when a reboot happens.
I have left the machine running Win98 (one test partition) for 12 hrs and I did not get a reboot but I have had the machine running Openlinux 3.1.1 for longer and nothing have happened. I am afraid it is a radom problem.
:(
The thing is that this computer is the one I use most of the time (24 hrs. a day) to connect to the Net (DSL) and it is really annoying coming home and found out that the computer have been rebooted.
I would really appreciate any suggestions you have because I am really crazy about this problem.
Best regards,
