Dunn" Subject: kernel panic: page fault (hardware error?) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Finally got FreeBSD installed on a spare 486 in the office (actually an Overdrive 83MHz). Unfortunately, the machine panics every so often and reboots itself. Here's the message it gives: -------------- Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0xf12acff0 fault code = supervisor write, page not present processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0 current process = 329 (bash) interrupt mask = net tty bio panic: page fault ----------- Then it proceeds to try and sync the disks and reboot, but syncing the disks FAIL! It prints a line of "2"'s and then says "giving up", and then goes to reboot. Is this evidence of a hardware anomaly?
