I will put them into my kernel and see if it reboots, ill also try get it to dump the panic so I can have a look at it at least. Its hard for me to test it as its only crashing every 30+ days or so, so you might not hear from me for a while. Thanks for your help.

You must compile some options into your kernel that will make it reboot if it panics. options KDB options KDB_UNATTENDED 2. Look at the "current process" in your panic message. It reads bge0. That is you NIC, right? Something in FreeBSD 5.3 changed and I get similar panics but with nge0 (my NIC) as the current process. I did not get these in 5.2.1 or any other version. It looks like the problem is either some global change made to NIC drivers or the kernel itself. I've never had kernel panics on my hardware. I too posted to the list, but I have not recieved a response. I don't think I got it to the right people. I also opened a problem report on the freebsd website, but no one has touched it. For now, I have to go back to 4.10. Hope that helps. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
