garfield, an RT in E40-342, is down.  For a the past few months it has been
crashing with machine check faults; tonight it has been unable to complete a
reboot without crashing.

Attempts to save a crash dump fail because of I/O bus errors.  The problem
is most likely either the disk controller or I/O hardware (processor board
or backplane).

The system is currently powered down.
