Any enlightenment will be appreciated (eg. am I the only one > to endure this, or -STABLE became a lil' bit bogus since a few weeks?) I tested more intensively, by booting the system 5 times in a row: --- try #1 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Mounting NFS file systems: . Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0x103 fault code = supervisor write, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc023b308 stack pointer = 0x10:0xcb2a1e64 frame pointer = 0x10:0xcb2a1e68 code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0 current process = 111 (chflags) interrupt mask = net bio cam trap number = 12 panic: page fault ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --- try #2 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Starting standard daemons: inetd cron printer sendmail syncing disks... panic: softdep_deallocate_dependencies: dangling deps ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tries #3 and #4 were successfull. --- try #5 ------------------------------------------------------------------- Doing initial network setup: hostname. panic: vm_fault: fault on nofault entry, addr: c4f25000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ As you can see, my system panics ~ 3 times out of 5 at boottime; I might suspect a hard disk problem, previewing a huge disk crash. What do you think?
