It has been almost 12 hours and no panic yet.  Externally the box seems
unresponsive.  No response to network activity.  No keyboard response,
etc.  On the screen I'm still seeing printk's from the hda-intel driver
complaining about a spurious interrupt.  I'm not to concerned about that
but it does tell me the kernel seems to be alive.
