I installed Fedora core 3 fresh new install and I sometimes get an error like below. This usally happens at 4am or when there is heavy filesystem usage (like copying lots of files).
The system will sometimes stay useable for a little bit but it require a reset. Anyone have any idea whats going on?
There is a bug report with an error like this on bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla....cgi?id=138990
The system is a Pentium III 750mhz/256MB RAM
Here are some system stats:
