Latest Cellar crash better

In the end, it was the long hours of trying to get everything back up and running, that lead to a few additional hours of downtime. I knew I had a good set of data, but was going to kinda heroic efforts to save about 6 hours worth of messages -- which is how many were lost this time. A handful.

I was so frustrated working all this time, additionally with no Cellar -- that I started making dumb mistakes. Jacquelita told me to step away from it for a while and she was right.

Now, on the good side, this system is almost entirely new. New mainboard, new power supply, new CPU and cooler, one out of two new disks. My goal is to upgrade it, maybe some time off hours this weekend or something, and then get rid of the last disk still in use. At that point the system will be almost entirely new hardware and entirely new software, and at that point it should only be another few months until the next crash.
