Should also add the circumstances - I was doing
tar cvfz hub/afile lots-of-stuff
where hub is mounted via NFS to another computer. I tried this several
times. The first time it quite with an error something like:
gzip: Protocol error
So I restarted it. It froze the internet. So I did
ifconfig ep0 down
ifconfig ep0 up
The internet unfroze. So I restarted the tar job. Then the computer
froze.
I don't think I got the exact sequence of events, but this is the sort
of thing that has been going on.
