I'm using the following system: P2BLS 450-PII 512 MB ECC-RAM Adaptec 2940 UW AGP Hercules In 3.2-RELEASE and also in 19990630-SNAP I am able to produce a panic: double fault using the kernel from the GENERIC-conffile with maxusers set to 512 and trying to fork() as much processes as possible. As far as I know, this panic kills the stacks and thus it is no wonder, that I could never get any helpfull information from dumps. Maybe I am not sufficiently familiar with (k)gdb. In 3.1-RELEASE I had to change Makfile.i386, kernel.script and pmap.h to ask the kernel to use the whole memory. The behavior (panic) keeps the same. Any suggestions?
