Re: no cats at home, but system (7.0-STABLE) reboots
Brief power outage, perhaps? ... note: the box is a laptop; I hit the power-off button and pulled out the 220V power cable of the power-supply from the outlet (that's why later the laptop after 2h uptime failed with battery empty) ... So much for the power-bounce theory. Perhaps you have a poltergeist? :) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I'm searching for monkeys or intruders ... Brief power outage, perhaps? Some BIOS have a selection of what to do when power is restored from an outage, typical choices being to start up, remain off, or return to the state before power was lost. Others may offer only the first two, or be hardwired to one of them with no opportunity to choose a different behavior. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
