I have performed the "Mystery Fix" on my box. My problem is fixed but it is a mystery how I did it. If you have followed my recent troubles you may recall that my system was panicking during the execution of umount. I took a gander at my kernel config file. I noticed that one of the three system V options was missing. I had ommitted SYSVMSG. I did not think (guess) that this would matter. BUT... My umount problem has disappeared after I recompiled with SYSVMSG. Was this change in the kernel really responsible for the fix? My guess is no. Could anyone help take the mystery out of this fix? FWIW. I was under the impression after reading the "The Complete FreeBSD" that SYSVMSG was not mandatory. Ipcs reports no processes using SYSV options. Thanks, Jason "Houdini" Wells
