I have a cycle 5 (Sparc 5 clone) Yesterday it hung twice.

Symptoms:

Won't ping
Can't telnet in
keyboard dead - stop a doesn't and even the lights on caps lock etc don't light
up.

But, unplug the keyboard and it beeps and puts up the boot/continue/command
prompt. Any of which work - ie it can see the keyboard, but give it c and its
back to the frozen state.

I am not, as far as I know, running out of space. Obviously I cannot check when
it hangs but under normal running there is tons of space.

TIA
