[comp.sys.amiga] Strange crash

pab@po.CWRU.Edu (Pete Babic) (11/23/90)

I recently had an unusual crash on my A500. The screen went blank, DF0: made
a loud grinding sound, the lights on my modem started to flash, and then the
screen displayed flashing color patterns. Upon rebooting the following line
was displayed near the beginning of the boot:

<unset>  <unset>  <unset>

The Workbench disk was write protected so I don't see how anything was 
change. I tried rebooting 3 or 4 times and the same line was displayed each
time. Every thing seems to work ok when booting is complete. Can anyone tell
me what causes the above message and why? Thanks.
