Not had a chance to look at the crash logs but ftp into it and check the attributes of media/usb are 755 or 777
 
also in ftp search / and search epg.dat
this should only be in the location specified by you (HDD/USB) any other location delete

stop e2 ? Ive never done that :err:
 
it may be worth deleting the epg.dat files, and doing a manual download, then see if it happens again. If the database file has become corrupted somehow, then it can cause problems when trying to access it to update the info

it says youre using the vix night hd skin, but there is also a few places warning about not being able to allocate memory, then just before the crash, theres this warning

warning, skin is missing element lab1 in <class 'Screens.EpgSelection.EPGSelection'>

Enigma2 store's the epg in flash memory after the initial read,so if you delete the epg.dat it will just repopulate it from it's memory :)
