Thanks Karanbir,
Very generic, basic off the shelf workstation stuff, both have been running
CentOS for over a year without problems and other machines that are OK have
very similar specs all are AMD 64:
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6400+
4Gb ram
AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4200+
2 Gb ram
This is very repeatable and nothing seems to be written to /var/log/messages
during failed boots, is this normal?
Cheers,
Colin.
