After a "cd /usr/src ; make install" it no longer errors on reboot. I'll try to retest this on a spare m.board (as my laptop is now in use, & not available for test. However, 1st mboard I tried on doesnt like 5 series boot, so I''l switch to another board eith a BIOS that may like 5 series boot (emul/non emul).

Was the system totally hung, Yes. Couldnt login on laptop keyboard. Couldnt rlogin telnet ssh remote. Couldnt even ping I recall. > or did it panic, or did the transfer process just hang?

OK, I've modified my custom kernel adding makeoptions DEBUG=-g options DDB options INVARIANTS options WITNESS to be ready, but I can't reproduce the problem here either: I've just done another ftp put of 1G (in same direction, 4.9 host Pentium II/Pentium II Xeon/Celeron (400.91-MHz 686-class CPU) to 5.2.1-RC2 laptop Pentium/P55C (166.66-MHz 586-class CPU) & it won't crash again, (with my kernel). (albeit the 1G was different data, before it was my backup tar.gz before changing disks, now its the 2 5.2.1-RC2.isos. I tried an amd+nfs cp to try to trigger it, no hang occured.. I reverted to original 5.2.1-RC2 generic kernel & still can't get the silent hang. Only thing left, grasping at straws, is my old laptop had a lof of read errors accesing the CD-RW, maybe somehow I got some bad binaries from that, that my make install has subsequently cured. I dont think its a heat problem. Office is a bit warmer today, & Ive not seen heat problems before on that box. Sorry I too can't seem to be able to replicate these errors. I tried though, & now have a kernel ready if they recur. Thanks. - Julian Stacey. Unix C & Net Services Consultant - Munich. http://berklix.com Mail me in Ascii text/plain: Html is dumped as Spam.
