BUT now I have a big problem! My current system is a (uname -a) FreeBSD RealAvenger 4.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE #0: Mon Mar 20 22:50:22 GMT 2000 root@monster.cdrom.com:/usr/src/sys/compile/GENERIC i386 (I could send you a boot log showing excact setup) running on a PIII at 733Mhz with 128MB on a 100mps ethernet LAN and my problem is the nasty habit of the system to suddently reboot when not in use leaving file systems not clean. I must point out that i am an experienced IT and that i have searched thoroughly every possibility of motherboard-processor combination- RAM speeds supply lines etc. The system has never rebooted when i am on it using or even abusing it!!!! It just reboots every 3 or 4 days always when noone is using it.! Logs report nothing. just the booting process. It leaves no trace.. Just reboots even in console mode(not X) I am desperate . anyone having any ideas? FreeBSD 4.0 had any instability problems that i havent seen on the internet? I appreciate your time spent!! even reading this mail thank you in advance Stavros Grigorakakis To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
