2006-12-15 15:53:46 Henrik Nilsen Omma ubiquity: statusexplanation This particular error is often due to a faulty hard disk. It may help to check whether the hard disk is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system to a cooler environment. I'm closing this one now since we cannot pursue it further without log files. If you experience the problem again after checking your hardware, please reopen.
