I'd gladly do this, but I though I'd ask for some direction before, since, right now, I have very few details. > If there's any more information you can pull out of your > system, that would probably be helpful Something in particular?

Oh, and I'm using gmirror with a couple of disks. There's also a zip drive attached (which has always worked), but I've not been using it in the last three days, so it was not "active" when the system paniced. >-- even if it's a case of taking > a photo of your screen and sticking it on a pasteboard site somewhere. Not much to see, really: the above message (which should be *almost* exact, since I copied it by hand) and a backtrace which doesn't mean much. Nothing else. > Hmmm... sym(4) looks like it's fairly elderly, implying the same is > probably true of your hardware. Sure. > Is it possible your disk controller is succumbing to the vagaries of age? I have never seen any little trouble with such a card (I've had more than one here and at customers'); thought it might actually be dying, I really find it strange that it started as soon as I upgraded from 9.3 to 10.2... bye & Thanks a lot av.
