I have had a machine that has consistently rebooted itself in the midst of building world. It doesn't happen when I am running X (say I leave it on overnight with a locked screen-saver), but only when there is really nothing else major running. It happens nearly every time, the only way I can get the buildworld to finish properly is to leave X running :(. I finally got sick of it, and seeing as the buzz on the list is to get some useful? information, I compiled the kernel with the DDB option and got a listing of the stack trace. I have included it below. There was also mention of getting a dump (how do I do this??). The computer is running 3.1-STABLE (CVSup ~4/22/99). My hardware is listed below: Pentium 166MMX - Intel 430VX Based Motherboard (Biostar I think) 96 MB RAM IDE Drives (2 HD, 1 CDROM) SMC EZ Card 10 ISA Ethernet (no appreciable network activity at the time) Creative Vibra16X Soundcard Generic Rockwell-based 33.6 Modem (Internal) Matrox Mystique 220 Video This machine in behind a firewall, so there is no danger of this having been part of the "remote reboot" saga. The stack trace is below: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0xffff037f fault code = supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0xffff037f stack pointer = 0x10:0xc6848e28 frame pointer = 0x10:0xc6848e9c code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0 current process = 36124 (cpp) interrupt mask = kernel: type 12 trap, code = 0 stopped at -0xfc81: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0xffff037f fault code = supervisor read, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc01ad7d0 stack pointer = 0x10:0xc6848ca0 frame pointer = 0x10:0xc6848ca4 code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL=0 current process = 36124 (cpp) interrupt mask = kernel: type 12 trap, code = 0 Is there anything else that would be useful. You'll have to help me out, I am not sure what else to do.
