Shouldn't this line in /etc/rc read `rm -fr /var/run/*' ?
xemacs is creating a directory there, for example.

I had asked a similar question a while back (couple of weeks ago). You
can check the mailing list archives.
The gist of it was:
1. Always use nfs v2 mounts -- use mountd with the -2 flag, and
expressly tell nfs clients to use nfs v2 mounts, for e.g. in solaris
use the "vers=2" option in vfstab(?).
2. nfs v3 is more unreliable than nfs v2, at least in FreeBSD
3. Get a decent card (Intel Ether Express is a good one right
now). Unfortunately, we're stuck with a 3com 3c905 (vx0), which
seems to work ok so far, but doesn't give great performance.
>From my testing so far, with a 2.2.5-STABLE (980303-SNAP) nfs server:
1. SunOS 4.1.x clients : very reliable.
2. Solaris 2.5.1: still testing
3. AIX and Linux: will be testing.

My kernel.old is from saturday (2/28) and doesn't display the problem.
Did I mention that I'm running a P90 overclocked to 333mhz? (Just
kidding, the hardware is conventional and very stable.)

www.cmd.com, look at the CRD5440. If you need a source for them we are
a CMD reseller, CRD5440's go for $2517 in singles, price gets better if
you want 2 or more.

CMD, DMI. Both should have WWW pages. I believe Symbios also does
SCSI2SCSI RAID (I think the Sun RSM product is their stuff rebadged)

Well, the first one you install from, the second one is the live
filesystem (very useful with the boot floppy to run FreeBSD on a system
you don't have permission to install on, or as the worlds most complete
"fixit" disk), the third has the complete CVS repository (which allows
you to extract =any= version that has existed, and to see the comment
history if you're curious what was changed and why) and the fourth has
contributed software (presumably gettoized to avoid confusion over who
is supporting it).
But I agree, that second pair of CDs seemed a bit like a
marketing-driven "mine is bigger than your's".
Any suggestions for what ought to be on two and half gigabytes of media?

Can you try backing out just the vfs_bio.c change and see if this also
cures the problem?

I'll do this but I won't have a chance until Saturday morning at the

sudo too.
The problem is both in -stable and in -current.

Not really - I got a lot of requests for the CVS repository and simply
couldn't fit it on two, nor does the package collection fit on a single
CD anymore. 4 was inevitable.

Subject: sio0: X events for device with no tp
I was using 2.2.5+PAO and am running -stable now. The PCCARD modem I
use is a Megahertz XJ3288i.
When I insert the modem it is correctly identified
Mar 7 00:25:13 kinetic /kernel: Card inserted, slot 0
Mar 7 00:25:24 kinetic /kernel: sio1: type 16550A
and I have iijppp configured to automatically start at modem
insertion. BUT unless I disable sio0 at boot I get
Mar 7 00:09:28 kinetic /kernel: sio1: type 16550A
Mar 7 00:09:50 kinetic /kernel: sio0: 64 events for device with no tp
Mar 7 00:10:16 kinetic /kernel: sio0: 64 events for device with no tp
Mar 7 00:10:18 kinetic /kernel: sio0: 2 events for device with no tp
Mar 7 00:10:18 kinetic /kernel: sio0: 6 events for device with no tp
