The software watchdog will fail if the kernel is badly mashed or interrupts are disabled. That means it doesn't help tell me if the problem was hardware or software (nor in general do hardware watchdogs). Is this one box running different loads to the others or different in any notable way ? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
