I also see crashes after heavy NFS on amd64 (the box is my main X terminal - painful !) FreeBSD fire.jhs.private 5.3-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.3-RELEASE #0: Sat Feb 26 21:47:28 CET 2005 jhs@fire.jhs.private:/usr1/src/sys/amd64/compile/FIRE64.small amd64 http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-fs/2005-March/000936.html Dropping back to i386 would avoid i386/amd ports compat issues. It might bring stability (don't know, not tried), or not I've also had crashes on a new 686 box runing 5.3-RELEASE (not always heavy NFS related, maybe &/or dvdrip related, but maybe it's hardware, that 686 host is newly arrived)... I'll be aiming for stable next, & if I still have probs, then kernel trace & send-pr, & finally current if I must :-) PS re. > can't wait to test.. Fortunately I built both my crashing hosts with the luxury of dual boot partitions (F1 & 2) & a large common F3 of /usr1 for common data, so I can take 1 slice up, & leave one at release for rescue :-) - Julian Stacey Net & Sys Eng Consultant, Munich http://berklix.com Mail in Ascii (Html=Spam).
