Hi Frank,
I'm getting similar problems also. Mine were ( are ) about 2-3 weeks
apart. I think my 'backup' harddrive is getting errors that cause the
buffers to fill-up, thus no free memory to spawn processes in. I did catch (
just once ) in the error logs, a scsi bus reset in progress type message.
Maybe this is what you are getting as well. - Andy ( please keep me informed
of your progress )
