Generally the APC UPSes work fine with FreeBSD. There is the apcupsd
port for controlled unattended shutdowns. They work fine in Linux too
with the same program.
You may also find other solutions that work fine with the nutups program.
As for failing to reboot after a power failure, you must have been
terribly unlucky...

My crash was unrelated to a power failure. We have lots of those in this part
of California (Humboldt County) but this was on a laptop. It was just a
crash that forced me to reboot, then the machine would not start properly.

Thanks for the info about UPS's. I will start looking around and I will be
sure to buy one before the rains start in October.
