Hi Folks,

I have OI running on an i3 PC. 4gig of RAM.

The machine started rebooting itself of its own accord. I updated OI
two days ago but the problem has not gone away.  I have checked the
memory and that passes fine.  No problem with the hard drives.  

The best I can get from the messages file is...

...and then the restart. I've got no clue why it keeps restarting.

I was getting irq 16 conflict issues but I turned off the motherboard
sound card and that went.

It restarted at just after 2am and was stable until a moment ago when
it rebooted 3 times in quick succession.


I'm not sure what happened, but root's crontab now read... 
30 0,9,12,18,21 * * * /usr/lib/update-manager/update-refresh.sh

where previously it had over 10 lines in it ... and none of them were
the line from above; which I have now remmed out just in case it
could be causing the issue. 

The files previously in /root are as they were.

The zfs pools are now reporting that they are version 5 - they were
created a few months ago ... do they default to 5 on creation? I
thought they should have been the highest that the OS is capable of at
the time, surely?

I'd be grateful for any advice please because I'm at a loss with this
one.

Many thanks,

Michelle Knight.
