(yes sorry for the cross-posting but I haven't been making much progress with this problem and my poor disks are taking a beating from all this rebooting) A 4.8-STABLE machine I have been running with no problems for over 130 days straight uptime is now having unexplained reboots AFTER upgrading to 4.9 STABLE. The reboots are not every single day, or predictable, but they are happening almost every other day. It is a low traffic qmail-scanner machine (7k messages a day) and the only reason I even upgraded was due to to http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.9R/errata.html Now I am sort of wishing I did not : ) I lost all the uptime and now the unexplained rebooting... I hesitate reporting this because most people point their fingers at the hardware. I am tempted to abandon this machine for another but if anyone is interested in taking a look please advise. I have the following: #/etc/rc.conf #rebooting dumpdev=YES savecore=YES dumpdir="/var/crash" I know ths is not quite enough - I need to configure a dump devide but I have no tape drive. Is there another way? I rebuilt this kernel with: makeoptions DEBUG=-g #Build kernel with gdb(1) debug symbols Is there anything else I should do? Right now I do not have the ability to attach a serial console to the crashing system and set the system to serial console. And even if I did have physical access I am not sure how to do that exactly... Is there another way to accomplish the debugging of this? I have been running FreeBSD so long with no problems I am sort of rusty at tracking them down, especially the elusive ones. So please point me in the right direction. Thanks!
