Maybe this subject is more appropriate. Heavy activity like make buildworld crashes my system with signal 11 or fatal trap 12. Disabling swap in /etc/rc solves the problem after a reboot. Also "mkae buildworld" in single user mode works fine. But a system without swap is not very nice. What should I do about it? I already set all hard disk relevant settings in the BIOS to the most conservative values. No change. Some hints about my system: MoBo ASUS P2B with 128 MB non-ECC RAM, Celeron 400MHz su-2.04# uname -a FreeBSD myserver.mydomain.de 4.2-STABLE FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #0: Sun Jan 28 07:42:00 CET 2001 root@:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/LILITH i386 dmesg snippet: ad0: 6197MB [12592/16/63] at ata0-master UDMA33 disklabel /dev/ad0s3 snippet: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 102400 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 6*) b: 524288 143360 swap # (Cyl. 8*- 41*) c: 1060290 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 65) e: 40960 102400 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 6*- 8*) f: 392642 667648 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 41*- 65*) su-2.04# mount /dev/ad0s3a on / (ufs, local) /dev/ad0s3f on /home (ufs, local) /dev/ad2s1d on /usr (ufs, local) /dev/ad0s3e on /var (ufs, local) /dev/ad0s9h on /usr/src (ufs, local) As you can see, I have /usr and /usr/src on two different disks, which are on two different IDE controllers.
