Description Chuck Ebbert 2010-04-05 16:14:42 UTC

Description of problem:
System log fills with these errors (the .GBST error happens first, then the ._BST message repeats endlessly.) After the messages appear, the machine will not power up or reboot after shutdown. The battery must be removed and replaced first:
