It was indeed a nightmare there for a (long) while and I was only able to
reformat/reload through much trial and error in finding the specific order
of hoops to jump through. However, now that it's over (knock on wood),
we're sitting on the longest uptimes ever in the history of our pair of
troublesome PM2eR-30s:
Livingston Enterprises PortMaster Version 3.3.2c1
System uptime is 47 days 16 hours 52 minutes
Livingston Enterprises PortMaster Version 3.3.2
System uptime is 47 days 17 hours 25 minutes
The previous records were somewhere around 3 weeks and, tossing out the
nasty continual-reboot-until-power-cycle data points, the average was about
5-6 days between spontaneous reboots.
