Hello, My workstation crashed over the weekend. It's a PII-350 running FreeBSD 3.1-STABLE as of the 2nd of April.

This system has functioned flawlessly for over 3 months 24-hours-a-day, then a crash over the weekend followed by this strangeness. I figure I'll try swapping cables, try the drives out in another box, etc. to try to narrow the problem down more precisely. I just thought I should throw this out just in case someone out there has a big clue they can throw me. Thanks in advance! Aaron out.
