They always seem to occur when I'm away from the computer. I have one of the mini ITX mb's with the C3 processor and Via chipset. The last panic that I caught was vm_fault: no fault entry. I read about "getting the most out of your panics", using "nm"and didn't really find anything in the kernel relating to the panic error. I was also using the generic kernel during this panic. I think it has something to do with my fdisk setup. However, this is just a wild guess. I'll be doing a cvsup, with no other processes running, and I'll get a kernel panic " syncing 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 " I have tried several different disk geometries. I matched it to the bios setting.... Still have the same troubles. The drive is nearly new. WDigital wd200bb I tried installing redhat on it as well, just to see how it would react. I get similar problems with errors about a problem with the main partion. I have 3 freebsd books and the web and I'm still not gaining ground on this problem. It is very intermittent. I thought I was on to something when I found the BIOS APM was on, but that didn't help either. Any help? I'll try and get more info on my panics.
