I will say that, except for 2.2.5, the problems I have had with FreeBSD freezing or otherwise dying on me is due to my own stupidity or problems relating to X (*never* switch between virtual terminals while X is starting or dying) with one exception. A recent -STABLE (~2 weeks ago) gave me a kernel panic once during the execution of mailq from which I obtained a crash dump. I posted the results to freebsd-stable so go look if you want to see it. I have not upgraded since before this panic, and the machine now shows: >uname -r; uptime 3.1-STABLE 3:13PM up 8 days, 22 hrs, 13 users, load averages: 1.00, 1.01, 1.00 which I'd say is not bad considering the instability people have been seeing. The machine was upgraded to 3.1-BETA from 2.2.8-RELEASE. > > -----Original Message----- > From: Ruslan Ermilov <ru@ucb.crimea.ua> > To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG <freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG> > Date: 07 May 1999 20:08 > Subject: Re: Strange reboot saga > > > >Just FYI: > > > >$ uname -r; uptime > >2.2.1-RELEASE > >10:02PM up 115 days, 5:57, 1 user, load averages: 0.00, 0.09, 0.14 > >(last reboot was due to <Ctrl-Alt-Del>) > > > >$ uname -r; uptime > >3.1-STABLE > >10:02PM up 8 days, 11:07, 6 users, load averages: 0.27, 0.17, 0.11 > >(last reboot was due to system freeze) > > > > > >-- > >Ruslan Ermilov Sysadmin and DBA of the > >ru@ucb.crimea.ua United Commercial Bank > >+380.652.247.647 Simferopol, Ukraine > > > >http://www.FreeBSD.org The Power To Serve > >http://www.oracle.com Enabling The Information Age > > > > > >To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > >with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message > > > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message > > Jonathan Fosburgh Geotechnician Santa Fe Snyder Corporation Houston, TX Home Page: http://www.geocities.com/vienna/1498 Manager, FreeBSD Webring: http://www.geocities.com/vienna/1498/computer/freebsdring.html ICQ: 32742908 AIM: Namthorien To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
