no, it is not only you. this was happening quite frequently on all my 4
machines running plan9 (cpu + kfs, no real fileserver) on two different
types of hardware. mine seemed to be triggered by heavy usage of acme, when
i would have several files/windows open and i would try doing any file
operation like saveing them...

no swapping was occuring (lots of ram)...

depending on the situation there were two options:

if sitting on the console -- reboot
if connected to the machine via drawterm -- just reconnect. the server
didn't crash or needed a reboot.


on the other hand, the cpu server managed to keep 60+ days uptime before i
took it down (i used it only remotely :)
