The message I am getting is this: dev=0x20014, bno=44, bsize=8192, size=8192, fs=/var panic: ffs_blkfree: bad size syncing disks... This is the point that it hangs at. There is a very similar (or the same) message when it successfully reboots. The reboots seem pretty random, so I can't really correlate it to anything that is running, but they are happening about 5 to 7 times a day. The /var slice is on da0, a 4.5GB seagate barracuda. Any suggestions on what might be wrong? Thank you, Jerry Bell jerrybell@ili.net Below is the output of dmesg: Copyright (c) 1992-1998 FreeBSD Inc.
