Ariel (my workstation; a Dell Precision 330, 1.4GH) may
be having a hardware problem of some sort. It has crashed
several times (3 or 4) since May 2001. Since we are running
the very same tar image on more than 70 machines (not all Precission 330-s) and
are not having problems on the other machines, I'm suspecting
hardware. But who knows.
When the failure occured we were left with the messages below in
/var/log/messages. Can anyone intuit from these messages where to look for the
problem? I appologize for the long list of lines from /var/log/messages but I
don't know which are the critical ones. A hard reboot was needed to restart
the computer. The one near the top: Unable to handle kernel paging request at
virtual address 74532d86
seems worth considering as the key problem.
