ok heres the deal, i install slackware9.1 on this machine. installation goes just fine. i boot, log in as root. and then, 2 mins later, hard reset. everything goes black, and computer reboots. no reason.
this continues to happen. so i boot into runlevel 1 and wait... fine, it works, no resets after a few mins of wating. i run /etc/rc.d/rc.M (rl 3 script) and when its done, 30 -45 seconds later a hard reset.
ok so i take note of the processes that are running in runlevel 3 and compare them to runlevel 1. i edit the rc scripts so that these are not started. all except khubd, which i cannot find a mention of and dont know how it starts. so i boot into runlevel 3 and immediatly kill the khubd process, so now 'ps -e' output looks just like runlevel 1, i wait about 40 seconds, and then... hard reset.
i now have the same processes running in runlevel3 and runlevel 1. but rl 1 is still safe, but runlevel3 causes the reset. not immediatly, or during initialization, but about 40 seconds later.
i am comepletely trapped. i am going to start going thru the rc.d scripts one by one combing every detail, but i dont think ill know what im looking for. any ideas plz help me.

Hmmm. khubd sounds like a kernel process, could be wrong...
In runlevel 1, what does "cat /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug" say? In runlevel 3? It *might* be a hotplug related issue, but I really don't know. Second, try "w" in both 1 and 3 - any difference? What does your dmesg say? Your /var/log/messages (big file)? Try "lsmod" from both 1 and 3. ALso, try uncommenting /etc/rc.d/rc.modules - that could be screwing you.
Good luck, sounds like a weird problem...

Windows is like Linux, only stuck in runlevel 6.
