Since upgrading to this release, This machine displays a panic .... message, and reboots. When this happens, it doesn't reset the necessary flags (fsck). So I must manually fsck the system. This problem occurrs even with the Generic Kernel release. I have regened the system, increasing # of users to 25, and enabling sio2 and sio3. I am not always watching the machine, when it reboots, I just hear a: drive start on reboot. I have only run 2.2.2 on this Pentium machine. I was running the previous version of BSD on an INTEL DX4-100. I upgraded the BSD OS, and the Hardware at the same time. Rebooting is no problem, except that it can easily trash my disks. What are my options here? o Can I copy a kernel from FreeBSD 2.2.1 and see if it also panics? o How long till the next release. o Suggestions and comments would be appreciated. Thanks David Edwards david@portanc.com
