When I got home and could physically access the machine, I got a
better look at the situation.

It wasn't paniced or maxed on RAM, but I think the hard drive is
dying.  It couldn't even run /bin/ls.  After reboot, it keeps
complaining "lost interrupt" on hdc and never finishes booting.  Alas.

So now I'm wondering about just running it disklessly...
