Date: Mon, 26 Aug 1996 17:28:10 GMT Organization: private Message-ID: <3221d990.11949983@mail.limmat.ch> X-Mailer: Forte Agent .99e/32.227 Sender: owner-hardware@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk 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?
