Do you have cats? (they have a way of screwing everything up...)
Heh, no, I don't have pets :-D
Sometimes I have heard noises on the space below the roof tiles, probably rats. Fortunately, non have entered the house itself (I have baits for them (as sensors) and they are intact).
At roof level it is more likely to be squirrels.
I've never seen any in this city.
No, I don't think any animal crashed my machine. Even if I had an uninvited and unknown house guest, a key press causing a power off would be logged.
I'm shooting into the blue here, so please bear with me: I've seen similar behavior in an environment with an unstable AC-power. With "unstable" I mean one or more (sine-)periods of serious undervoltage, e.g. for a nomial Voltage of 240Vrms a 2 period long (40ms @50Hz) drop to ca 50Vrms. Now, a good quality and amply dimensioned PSU just swallows such "brown-outs", but on a lesser quality, or driven at more than 80% nominal load a PSU can cut the "power-good" signal and thus causing a reboot (if configured to boot-on-power-on). A edison-glow-lamp and flourescent lamp would flicker, some LED lamp might, others might not. Monitoring such happenings is a pain in the but, and for most of us is would make no sense to invest in such equipment. A UPS is in most cases cheaper. Just my 2ct. - Yamaban.
