Incurred the same problem. I'll try not starting the 2nd CPU tonite when I get home and see what happens. BTW Marc, I grabbed the PostgreSQL 6.1 sources from ftp.postgresql.org as you suggested. I don't remember the exact error messages but 970520 didn't compile so I grabbed 970515. It built fine but when I ran initdb it complained that it couldn't find it's library. I ran ldconfig and then initdb again. This time it hung with the follwing... Running: postgres -boot -C -F -D/usr/local/pgsql/data -Q template1 After 5 minutes I did a ^C and the machine promptly crashed. I couldn't read the exact panic msg as it went by too fast. It rebooted, fscked the disk and came up OK but no database.

No need to build a 3-D motherboard to have 32 processors in one machine. The compact-PCI standart defines a PCI interface for racks, in which you may plug several motherboards. A rack of 8 motherboards containing each 4 processors lead to a 32 processors machine.

FYI, in case this helps...I'm maintainer for hte source code of PostgreSQL, and am running it on both FreeBSD 3.0-Current at home as well as FreeBSD 2.2 at the office, neither having exhibited this problem... You made a comment in a previous email about running other processes... PostgreSQL forks off 'child processes' for each incoming request, with it using Shared Memory (SysV IPC) to communicate between processes...if that makes any difference, or helps... The initdb command that Randy was talking about doesn't fork off any process though, the forking only occurs on an initialized/live system Marc G.

"vacuum" at the end of initdb crashed the database constantly. I gave up with 6.0 and using 6.1 which compiles and works out of the box.

I have this same problem using the GXPro (hangs after the bogus RTC complaint) and also with a new system that I'm developing (reboots at the same place). Our table is always 1.4 and there are no relevant BIOS settings that can be frobbed by end users.
