It has 2 - 1G PC133 RG DIMM C3 128X72 VR Kingston memory chips. The problem is Signal 11 panics. It seems to be memory related. Kingston sent 2 replacement chips. I installed them and it made it noticeably worse. With the new chips I can't even get through an fsck. With the old chips I haven't been able to do a build world. I will sometimes get about halfway through. Does anyone else seen problems with a similar installation. I have been fighting with this for about four weeks now and can't make it work. It has two 3ware escalade controlers. I have current on one and release on the other and they exhibit the same symtoms. I even took the escalade controllers out and did an installation on an ide disk with no real change. Any ideas will sure be appreciated. I haven't been successful at rousting anyone at fnord for over two weeks. They delivered the machine almost a month late because they were having problems installing freebsd, their standard installation, which makes me think that they were having the same problems and rather than fixing them decided to ship:-( Has anyone else had good/bad experiences with FNord and especially with the 430?
