I say (?) because I strongly suspect that this is flaky hardware, however after spending the afternoon installing freebsd 3.2-Stable from 9/24, then upgrading via cvsup to the most recent 3.3-RC sources my machine crashed on reboot. I got dumps from 1 out of 7-10 boots. Here is what they looked like (copied by hand): Loading /boot/defaults/loader.conf int=0000000e err=00000007 efl=00010216 eip=000052dc eax=00000004 ebx=000095ec ecx=00000001 edx=000095ec esi=00025f68 edi=00094188 ebp=00093fa4 esp=00093fa4 cc=002b ds=0033 es=0033 fs=0033 gs=0033 ss=0033 cs:eip=01 42 14 c9 c3 8d 76 00-55 89 e5 53 8b 5d 08 85 ss:esp=cc 3f 09 00 e2 7e 00 00-ec 95 00 00 01 00 00 00 I suspect flaky hardware due to the fact that it wasn't consistent, and I used a configuration almost identical to the other similar boxes we have. Also the last batch of boxes from this vendor has had some other problems. I'm having the night guys take the box down off the rack and reseat everything to see if that helps. If anyone has any suggestions (assuming the box is still borked tomorrow) or something for me to test (like ddb, etc.) just let me know. Boxes are Rack-mounts, Intel N440BX mb's with onboard Intel etherexpress. This one has 128M of ram, 450 Mhz PII and a 16G IDE HD. Thanks, Doug -- "My mama told me, my mama said, 'don't cry.'
