I had two problems: It appears to need P133 RAM even though the bus runs at 100Mhz. An unreliable NTP source that caused my clock to occasionally jump back 3 weeks - and when it jumped forward again, cron started all the missed tasks, giving "no procs" on the console. I have submitted a patch to cron making it catch up just the last days worth of missed tasks, and I now use three NTP sources. Thanks to all those who gave advice. -Steve
