All,

  After doing a system update today, I rebooted. The system hung on reboot
requiring a hard reset. It has never done this in the past (20 or so reboots).
Checking through the log I find:

  So the box hung on shutdown at 12:44:03 and it just sat there until I did a
hard reset (pushed the reset button). Has anybody experienced a similar hang on
reboot? I welcome suggestions since this box is at a remote location and I need
to insure a clean remote reboot. What else to check?
