Greetings,

	I have a Pentium 75 (Zappa), 8MB and 1.2GB disk system
	running FreeBSD 2.0.5. For some reasons, the system
	just locked up. The console display was still working
	fine but I couldn't type anything on the console or
	any virtual console. I couldn't access it from the Ethernet
	either. It looked like the system is in a deadlock.
	There is no message on the console indicating any error.

	What seems to be the problem - mbuf, swap space ?

	Where should I start looking ?
	What should I look for ?

	Please advice. 

	Freddy.
