    Nothing, nada, zip.  One of the guys did tell me that there's an 
OOPS on screen, but that's it.  And since they can't figure out what the 
OOPS says or is, that's where it ends for me.

    I'm getting overtime for spending the whole day at the office 
yesterday, Sunday. :)  But, now here's my headache...  I yanked the 
trouble machine out and put another one in its place.  Initially I was 
going to ru nmemtest on the trouble machine over night, but instead I 
left it running, hoping I'd see something this morning.  I'm sure you 
can guess what I'm about to say next: no crash.  (and the one I put in 
its place is running just fine.)

    This tells me ... uh, zippity doodaa really.  Why would it only 
crash, consistently every day at 6:30 in the morning, but when I yank it 
out of service and leave it alone, it doesn't do that.  Something's 
amiss.  I need to go through the cron jobs to see if there's anything 
that runs at that time, see if maybe something's getting caught up and 
causing a freeze...  Blah.
