Not out of hard disk space, but the machine did lock up a few weeks back, to
the point where I had to do a hard reset. It was completely unresponsive to
console or telnet access. Luckily, it runs a journalling filesystem
(ReiserFS), so it recovered ... or apparently, mostly recovered. :-)

I'll try editing out that bad entry, and trying again.
