I was able to do a make -j8 buildworld myself, >successfully up to the point that perl5 failed me 8( No luck here. I'm running a 3.0-CURRENT SMP kernel updated as of this morning (dual PII-300 256Mb RAM, 256Mb swap of which none is actually in use) with softupdates. make -j8 of /usr/src panics about 10-15 minutes into the build. No devfs, no slices. Builds without any -j option complete with no errors. The panic I've been seeing fairly consistently is in (abbreviated stack backtrace): _initiate_write_filepage + 0x6F _softdep_disk_io_initiation + 0x7B _spec_strategy + 0x25 ... _ffs_fsync + 0x158 _sched_sync + 0x9C if this is of help to anyone. Hints or suggestions as to what to try or look into would be much appreciated. -- Parag To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
