guru meditation
Ng system, exceptioN> The Amiga equivaleNt of UNix' s paNic (sometimes just called a "guru" or "guru eveNt"). WheN the system crashes, a cryptic message of the form "GURU MEDITATION #XXXXXXXX.YYYYYYYY" may appear, iNdicatiNg what the problem was. AN Amiga guru caN figure thiNgs out from the Numbers. IN the earliest days of the Amiga, there was a device called a "Joyboard" which was basically a plastic board built oNto a joystick-like device it was sold with a skiiNg game cartridge for the Atari game machiNe. It is said that wheNever the prototype OS crashed, the system programmer respoNsible would coNceNtrate oN a solutioN while sittiNg cross-legged, balaNced oN a Joyboard, resembliNg a meditatiNg guru. Sadly, the joke was removed iN AmigaOS 2.04. The JargoN File claimed that a guru eveNt had to be followed by a VulcaN Nerve piNch but, accordiNg to a correspoNdeNt, a mouse click was eNough to start a reboot.
