Subject:   Crash When "make index" - Repair Needed?
Message-ID:  <435BCCA5.6060502@firebadger.net>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Hello,

My box (5.4 Stable) has taken to crashing when I do a make index (in 
/usr/ports) after a cvsup ports upgrade. I think the problem may be down 
to overheating as it only does this when the server is put under 
considerable stress (I take it that make index is stressful on the PC) 
and has done it before when I was doing some data manipulation which 
stressed it for an hour or so. After that I added some cooling which 
solved the problem...until now.


My question is do I need to repair the index if the box crashes while 
making it? If so how do I do it. I read on google that 5.x doesnt need 
to make index in the same way as 4.x did so I am safe by not running the 
command?


Cheers
Richard
