I encountered it as well, today. Got home from work and backend was dead.
/cache (/dev/hda2) is 13GB Myth is set to use up to 12 GB live tv buffer. df said /cache was at 100% usage. removed ringbuffer file. and started backend, and all was good again. Running knoppmyth R5A12, unified BE/FE, 7NIF2, pvr 250, 512 MB ram will post logs, configuration files, etc if it's useful.
