Spontaneous reboot! HW diagnostics?



Hi Gang!

After over 100 days of error-free service, my Debian 2.2/i486 
dial-up-router-cum-print-server did a spontaneous reboot 
yesterday. 

(Aftermath: the CMOS clock had jumped ahead an hour and a half, 
the nmbd log contained non-printing characters at that point, 
and 1 e-mail in the exim spool was corrupt.) Before this happens 
again, maybe somebody can recommend ways to test for decaying 
silicon? Preferably in-service; if that's not possible then at 
least without booting a different OS?

T.
