This ATHENA workstation is not correctly resetting itself after an
ordinary logout.
I found it in a hung state of some kind this morning (blinking cursor on
a black screen) and had to reboot it. When I logged out this evening, I
got the same problem.
During this morning's reboot, it gave an error msg about having to check
one of the devices ("/dev/hd7a" ??? maybe). But it was able to recover
from that and reboot as an ATHENA workstation properly.
I will leave it in this hung state, so someone can drop by even if I'm
not around.
