I vote for temperature issues too. That is my experience with some |
| 23 |
Aristo laptop - it get very hot very easily and powers off when |
| 24 |
temperature exceeds 85 C. |

You may try to run something like this while emerging: |
| 27 |
# while sleep 5 ; do cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM0/temperature >> |
| 28 |
/tmp/temper ; done & |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
and hope that part of that file will survive the poweroff - you will see |
| 31 |
whether temperature was raising before end. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Or you may put something like: |
| 34 |
... do cat /proc/acp..... | tee -a /tmp/temper ; done & |
| 35 |
in background in the session in which emerge runs and observe the |
| 36 |
temperature between compilation lines. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
The exact path to temperature file may differ, it will be something like |
| 39 |
/proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/temperature - and it will exist only if your |
| 40 |
kernel has necessary drivers compiled (or modules inserted). |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
The /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/*/temperture file has about 30 bytes, |
| 43 |
35 thousands of copies makes 1MB file, so you loop may run for 9 |
| 44 |
hours if storing one copy every second or 48 hours if appending one copy |
| 45 |
every 5 seconds. |
