Jordan, > This, however, is quite interesting. Can you tell us a little bit > about what you're running on this system and if you're using any > special devices? At the time of the last boot, I was had a bash login shell on ttyv1 in which I was running mutt. I wasn't even using X at that point. Wile I can't tell you which job, from the sound of the disks, periodic daily was still running. Other than that, my usual servers were running: system daemons - ntpd, inetd, cron, sshd, moused; apps - postfix, thttpd and dnetc (Distributed net client to keep my load permanently above 1). There was hardly any mail or web activity. As for special devices, I only have the hardware which I mentioned. > If this panic occurs twice in a row at the same > location, we're definitely starting to narrow it down. I agree. The explanation also has to account the fact that it doesn't always happen at approximately the same time. Another listmember asked about what filesystems I was using. At the time of the last crash I had 6 ufs with four softupdates, 2 mfs, a procfs and a fdesc. I have iso9660 and MSDOSFS in the kernel, but almost never use them. The fdesc addition postdates the crashes. Is there anything I can usefully run to gather more info before the crash, such as a ps dump? -Andrew- -- _______________________________________________________________________ | -Andrew J.
