Last week, I took a trip up to Toronto to perform some upgrades on my server...in particular, upgrade the system to a more recent kernel then what I was running. I tried out the 3.0-CURRENT that I was running on my home machine, which was quite stable (pre-lite2 merge) but that panic'd pretty much on reboot, so decided that that wouldn't be smart to run since I'll be doing most of my admin remotely. I then grabbed the src tree from 2.2-GAMMA as a base, and CVSup'd all the new stuff, and upgraded to that, since 2.2-RELEASE was "just around the corner"... ...well, 2.2-RELEASE, as everyone knows, has just been released, so I've once more re-sync'd my source tree so that I have what is considered the -RELEASE source tree online... Well, -RELEASE isn't stable, that's for sure. Something like 3 crash/reboots in the past 12 hours or so?? I've put in a bug report for each of the last two, as there seemed to have been *some* information available from the core, but this recent one doesn't seem to give *any* information. I someone can tell me what information would be useful to grab out of the core files from this, I'd be more then happy to produce it, as I'm holding onto the core files for as long as possible, and/or in relation to the other two bug reports created... hub# gdb -k kernel.Mar18 vmcore.12 GDB is free software and you are welcome to distribute copies of it under certain conditions; type "show copying" to see the conditions.
