	Hey all, this message is in response to another message I posted
earlier.  Since nobody responded, I'm taking the assumption that
no-one out there has experienced this problem, or that no-one has read my
original message.

	Anyway, I was having problems since I upgraded to 4.0-Stable from
3.4-Stable.  I was using a pair of Realtek NICs (rl0 & rl1), and it turns
out that the server isn't compatible with these NICs - even though
3.4-Stable worked wonderfully with them. I replaced the NICs with
different ones, and I've noticed no problems whatsoever - what a relief.

	I don't believe that the NICs aren't true Realteks - they're
actual name is 'Genius (RTL8139)'.  So, for future reference, if your
server reboots every ten minutes with a fatal trap 12 error, this may help
you on your way to finding the solution.

-David Fuchs

	P.S. I did see a lot of questions on the mailing list regarding
such issues, but I never saw a reply that actually stated a solution. It
seems as if half the messages on these listings go unanswered - it's 
either that, or that once a solution is found the answer never gets
posted.
