Got a really strange one:
DECstation 5000/200, 64M RAM, 3 SCSI disks, 1 SCSI tape
NetBSD 1.4.2
from dmesg:
asc_timeout: cmd 0xB0198468 drive 3
rebooting...
from /var/log/messages:
Jun 18 14:52:49 maximillian /netbsd: asc_timeoute: cmd 0xB0198468 drive 3
Jun 18 14:52:49 maximillian /netbsd: rebooting...
Here's the deal.. drive 3 is the boot drive, and where /var is stored...
How in the heck did it write the timeout to /var/log/messages if the drive
had timed out?
Now how did the system write to /var if the drive had timed out?
Told ya it was a good one...
Any ideas??
