Beagle Bone executes a Halt after about 5 min

Post by kleewyck »

I just received my Beagle Bone Rev C and was playing with it. It runs fine for a while then suddenly I see:

Broadcast message from root@beaglebone (Tue Jun 17 04:08:34 2014):

The system is going down for system halt NOW!

I never entered the halt command. I'm curious why it would just up and execute a halt after a while. Is there a watchdog timer? Or Cron job that does this?

Maybe there is a clue logged in one of the /var/log/* files.
