>Release:        FreeBSD 2.1-STABLE i386
>Environment:

	2.1-stable as of 5/29/96 (or so)
	on a 90Mhz, Neptune Pentium w/53c810 & 3 fast disks, 
	96Mb of ram, and 2 cyclades 16s.

>Description:

	A panic.  I've only been runing this version of -stable for
	a few days and I'm not used to seeing software panics with
	post-2.1 FreeBSD.   A panic in the first few days is a bad sign.

	Given the amount of filesystem damage, the system was quite busy
	at the time it went down.  In fact, /tmp was destroyed.  Big
	loss.

>How-To-Repeat:

	no idea.

	I've got a core dump.  Since it's kinda large I'm going to 
	delete it if someone doesn't express interest in looking at
	it.

>Fix:
	
	?
