Anyway my box freezed a couple of times after last newvers.sh and the sym= ptoms looked like the same, with messages about acd0. I was able to ping = it but it won't let me ssh in, like it was using all the cpus. About kgdb... I never used freebsd-update, so sorry if I'm saying something stupid, but= could it be the case that the kernel has been built without debugging sy= mbols or something like that? Does freebsd-update provide a kernel.debug?= I've seen that you are not using shiny quad-core, but could you try build= ing a kernel by yourself? I think that you could do it using a different,= more powerful, freebsd box if you have it, or even on qemu. I could help= if you wish.
