My server gets kernel panic every 7th day

[Daniel Johansson]

Hmm okay, sounds like it could be the PSU after all. Thanks. I think I
will try to switch it for another one.

By the way is there any way to find out what and why find is ran at
that time every night to saturday? I would like to find the
script/cron/periodic that run it and see if I can make the kernel
panic happen again.

Then I don't have to wait until next saturday to know if it was the PSU or not.

I've searched in /etc/periodic, it's none of my crons that runs find,
and found some scripts that runs find but I'm not really familiar with
how the periodic scripts works.

I need to find the script that runs find every night to saturday at 04:19:57.
