Heya Yeah, it's either someone manually rebooted it or your power supply is getting sillly and needs to be replaced. It happened to me last night, box with 300W power supply and ummm 6 ide harddrives suddenly rebooted while i was at the prompt. All other boxes on the same power strip stayed online.... Well i guess it's time to go out and get a better power supply :)
