How did you turn off your machine?
Execute `man shutdown` to learn how to turn off your machine.
Further, even if you do hit the reset or the power switch, only
the latest files you were working on might be hurt. The machine
does a `fsck` upon startup and repairs the file-system. You should
not have to reinstall anything.
If you are getting a kernel panic while using a standard distribution
kernel, not an experimental one, and the result is unrepairable
disk corruption, you most likely have a severe hardware error.
They may be caused by:
(1) Overclocking the CPU
(2) Using DMA on an IDE drive that doesn't support it (UDMA).
(3) Bad or two slow RAM. If your machine needs P100 RAM, you
must use P100 RAM.
