It looks like splbio is not up but the softdep lock is held. ^^^^ I just have to enable softupdates on /home, /var, /usr, /usr/obj to get a panic at "Additional daemons: syslogd" while booting. If I disable softupdates at /var I'm able to log in (X11) and dial out -> panic (because of fetchnews/fetchmail/whatever are accessing something). > The best thing is to look at this global variable for lkt_held: > static struct lockit { > int lkt_spl; > pid_t lkt_held; > } lk; > > and see which process held the lock. Do a traceback on that process as well.. How do I do this with _DDB_ (step by step please, I'm not very experienced with it), I get no core dump? Do I have to boot a debug-kernel?
