I don't know if this is a problem with the modem (USR sportster 28.8) or with my setup -- I can call out OK, but I haven't tried yet tried running dos and connecting *to* the machine. Running April SNAP, compiled kernel with "-O -m486" flags, using gettytab "std.38400". /etc/ttys is unchanged except for enabling the getty on /dev/ttyd0 and using std.38400. A terminal connected via /dev/ttyd5 (a STB 4 port card) using std.9600 works fine, with no spewing garbage. Thinking it might be some tty setup problem, I enabled rc.serial -- this is the bug report -- it seems that the stty's in rc.serial cause a kernel panic (boy was I glad I had made a boot floppy..., is there any way to tell init at boot time not to run any of the scripts?): ie. stty t_termios in sioioctl() (_sioioctl @ f0184a80 from nm -p /kernel) in sio.c BYW, how the *@# can I get a disassembly to see where the failing instruction is? I tried gdb /kernel, but gdb couldn't find "debugging symbols". I couldn't find any disassembler program -- is there none? Also, no crash program. Finally, I had to compile sio.c with -S, and run "as -a" to get a listing... That's a real crock I think... Do I have to enable the kernel debugger? That seems like maybe a lot of baggage to insert in the kernel just for this. A hint would be appreciated. Thanks! BTW, Freebsd is working great... now if I could only get the serial connections working... Dave Bodenstab ...att!iwcs!sung!imdave PS, as long as I'm bug reporting... just for the fun of it I tried two simultaneous dd's from /dev/fd0.1440 and /dev/fd1.1200 If I used full track reads, then the two dd's alternated reading the floppies. When I did not specify the blocksize, I got messages from the floppy driver something like "input in output". Sorry, I never wrote this one down, since it didn't seem too important.
