Re: Machine reboots when editing files in /etc

[Danilo Turina <danilo dot turina at alcatel dot it>]

Same problem for me, but only when XFree is running.
In my case, the problem seems to be the antivirus: if I disable it, I 
have no more crashes (I think that also my NFS client software (FTP 
Software's InterDrive) had some part in the problem, but now I 
uninstalled it).

Note that if I only disable scannings (system scan, download scan, etc.) 
I HAVE the crash. To avoid crashes I must stop the antivirus, i.e. I 
must stop antivirus services (McShield and AVSync Manager) using the 
Services applet.

My antivirus is McAfee 4.5.1.

Ciao,
