spontaneaous reboot MacMini 2018

Occasionally the little Mac reboots spontaneously after which I get the following message:


"Your computer was restarted because of a problem.

Click Report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple"


Does anyone have a solution for this annoying thing? I ran EtreCheck, but no major issues were detected.

A clone of this Mini runs on my Macbook Air which doesn't create this problem!


MacOs 10.14.6

3 Ghz Intel Core i5,

16 Gb 2667 Mhz DDR4 (OWC)

Thanks for your reply! Yes, I did install Catalina last week and yes, no bootup problems anymore. However, I still have one or two 32 bit apps which I value. That's the reason I went back to Mojave.


I still wonder why the Mini generates this problem whereas my Macbook air does not.


best regards,

Rob
