Re: funky tyan s2510

I have had this happen to me on a very old machine whose CPU fan died at
one point without notice and something burned out - the machine was
working but crashing at random with all sorts of messages and in all sorts
of situations, usually some time after startup (but not too long after
startup).

Best regards,
Ognen
