The following reply was made to PR misc/16435; it has been noted by GNATS.

If signal 11's tend to happen at pseudo-random times during the installation process there are strong odds you have a piece of ailing hardware. All the signal 11 problems I've ever had have stemmed from bad RAM. Although I've heard that other hardware failures will also cause them (such as a bad motherboard). I hope this helps you resolve your probelm. -- William Carrel p.s. apologies for posting twice to freebsd-bugs, this is your punishment for not merging my patch in yet. ;) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
