Cool, looks like they finally added the "all in one" command that was 
lacking (you used to have the run the "big" tests manually in a certain 
order, which was tedious).

If it passed a full diag, I think you're pretty safe on the hardware 
front (unless it's a sporadic fault, like a loose solder joint, which I 
hope is unlikely).

I would guess IOS bug at this point. Sadly :o(
