I am beginning to suspect a memory failure. However, the unit is completely open, no case. In a very cold room. There is only one memory card so I can't play with that. I will try a buildkernel and see if that survives. -- -- Doug To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
