Comment(by gnu):

 Just happened to me, twice, on my first install of 8.2-760 on two
 different laptops.  Nothing obvious in the logs.  Only one odd thing
 there:

  sugar-shell:1302: DEBUG: sms_error_handler (0x959dc40, FALSE, 3, 9,
 32771, 0)

 Don't know if it's related, or just a random message someone forgot to
 remove.

 "last" says:

 root     tty1       Thu Sep 18 01:10  still logged in

 olpc     console    Thu Sep 18 01:05  still logged in

 olpc     console    Thu Sep 18 00:46 - 01:05 (00:18)

 reboot   system boot 2.6.25-...  Thu Sep 18 00:46 (00:37)

 i.e. init noticed the crash (3rd line, logout of "olpc").
