The `savecore_enable' knob is history now (it was a bandaid only against savecore(8) not obeying its minfree file), but dumpdev remains a prerequisite for kernel core dumps. Can you run it on a serial console, with DDB enabled? (Maybe even over a modem line.) Does the machine provide NFS services, or act as a NFS client? I've seen a number of crashes on RELENG_2_2 lately that might be related to NFS. Is the CD-ROM regularly being used? I've seen another couple of crashes that might be related to a bug or two in the cd9660 f/s. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
