A little of my background: I am NOT completely newbie to the FreeBSD system. I've used FreeBSD for some time, for about a year. Recently, I upgraded my system to FreeBSD 5.0 by clean installation. Right now everything is up to date. One reason, I want to have FreeBSD 5.0, is because I wanted to test it , and by that do my contribution to the FreeBSD community. However, I encountered one problem, I don't know what to do when my system completely freezes. I know at what moments but I don't know at what level it's, i.e.. kernel level , device, X-server, window manager, application. The only way out when my computer freezes by pressing reset button. This also happens to friend's computer, the hardware architecture is different, but same OS. My background is computer science. I know C, and some assembly. How to capture a problem , and debug it ? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
