Apologies for the lengthy delay in reply. I installed the AMD ucode package. But the system crashes still continue. I am in the process now of talking to AMD about it.

I went for it, installing mcelog -- following these instructions, not to completion though. I copied `mcelog` to `/etc/init.d/`. I learned from here how to start `mcelog` without `chkconfig`.

Though, I've reached another hurdle: starting the process

jamie@rorschach:~$ /etc/init.d/mcelog start
/dev/mcelog not active
Starting mcelog daemon
/etc/init.d/mcelog: 58: startproc: not found

What is the Devuan equivalent for `startproc`, `killproc`, and `checkproc`?

I was running IPython and an error string began to populate in the terminal from outside of IPython, with the terminal becoming non-responsive. I don't have those error messages, but after two or three times closing terminal, opening IPython, receiving those errors - the pc crashed. After reboots, the desktop environment would load and run for ~30 seconds, then crash. It happened a handful of times. Eventually only the error would populate in the syslogs (see below) but the computer would no longer crash. After the DE stabilized, I ran `memtester` for 24 hours and I haven't received the above error today.

I gather this/these are likely a hardware issues. Any insight into which components? Web-searches have come up with little for me.

Also, one other question - will installing `mcelog` on to Devuan 4.0 be problematic? It seems available according to the website https://www.mcelog.org/installation.html though I am uncertain about this line: "If your distribution has a old crontab based mcelog disable it to avoid conflicts. The easiest way is to delete the mcelog cronjob file in /etc/cron.*" Thanks
