It turned out to be caused by a bad #1 memory card. It does not seem wise to continue unless you know why the system crashed. In this particular case some part of memory would have been bad had I not done a complete reboot. I hope that the recently posted memory error trap fixes will give us messages if the same thing happens in the future. -- Mark ...{decvax,ucbvax}!decwrl!qubix!msc ...{ittvax,amd70}!qubix!msc decwrl!qubix!msc@Berkeley.ARPA
