Hello there,

I have been having problems with my FreeBSD 2.2.7 box.
I do not know why, but it is crashing down almost every hour!!!

I have been using X and while I use it I could not see the
error report.   I started to work in text mode and I tried to
repeat the problem (very hard work with Latex and friends).

Finally, I got:

	Fatal trap 12
	page fault while in kernel mode
	fault virtual address= 0xcc4831c
	fault code= supervisior read page not present.
	...
	Something else related to stack pointer, program counter, etc.
	...

the problem is happening often, and I'm starting to cry.
I do not know what I did wrong.

This problem is very serious, one of my hard disks got its superblock
corrupted and I hardly could recover my information.  I formatted the
disk, and installed FreeBSD 2.2.7, FOUR times!!! 

I returned to version 2.2.6 and I have the same problem, but my file
systems remain healty.

I suppose it has something to do with my computer itself and not with
the operating system.  I suposse I have to custom something in my BIOS.

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS ????

Thanks in advance.

sincerly,

	a soul in pain...
