These aren't spontaneous reboots. They're kernel panics. Apr 3 06:50:44 hope kernel: Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a Apr 3 06:50:44 hope kernel: WARNING: / was not properly dismounted This is because the machine rebooted without unmounting the filesystems. It will do a background fsck later. Apr 3 06:50:44 hope savecore: reboot after panic: page fault Apr 3 06:50:44 hope savecore: writing core to vmcore.3 This means that the reboot was caused by a page fault. A core file was saved (to /var/crash by default), so you can feed it to the kernel debugger kgdb(1) to see what caused the page fault. See chapter 10 of the developers handbook on how to debug a crash dump. Copy the output that kgdb generates when starting up, and the output of the 'backtrace' (or 'bt') command and post them here, or on the hackers list.

Need help on reboot issue (hang during shutdown)
Hi, I have a headless colo server and sometimes (after issuing the reboot command) it would hang and did not reboot. I have enabled console logging: normal reboot: Sep 19 13:24:26 foo kernel: Writing entropy file: Sep 19 13:26:30 foo kernel: Pre-seeding PRNG: Sep 19 13:26:30 foo kernel: kickstart Sep 19 13:26:30 foo kernel: . Sep 19 13:26:30 foo kernel: Loading configuration files. reboot hang: Sep 19 16:56:06 foo kernel: Writing entropy file: Sep 19 16:56:06 foo kernel: . tech support reset pc Sep 19 19:40:00 foo kernel: Pre-seeding PRNG: Sep 19 19:40:00 foo kernel: kickstart Sep 19 19:40:00 foo kernel: . Sep 19 19:40:00 foo kernel: Loading configuration files. The console log can't tell me much... My question is that is there other ways/settings/etc for me to diagnose this issue ? Like to find out exactly what was hanging ?
