Hip.

I have a problem I can't solve. A 386DX40 with 8MB Ram, Adaptec 1542CP, a
Quantum 1.2GB Disk, a CD Rom drive, a Ne2000 network adaptor and a ET4000
graphics card. All that with a fresh installation of FreeBSD 2.1.5-Release.
The system runs very well in normal operation. This means running as DNS Server
and stuff like that. No problem at all.

But when I like to compile something, very strange things happen. Things like:
cc: Internal compiler error: program as got fatal signal 10
*** Error code 1
About the same message I got with signal 11 or 5.
I also saw a bus error once or twice. With the message above the machine went
down a few things on the /var tree got corrupt. Another time I had to repair the
root file system (namely the /sbin directory). That one was nearly empty after I
was through with fsck. I copied the directory from the Live cd and it was up and
running again.

I compiled several different things. Like a kernel compile run or other ports.

I tried several things but could not find the problem causing the above.

Any Ideas?



       Cheers,
       Oliver
