I keep getting a Fatal Trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode.
Initially, it would happen approx. every 6 hours. However, over the
past few days, it has occured more frequent.
here's the error.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fatal Trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virutal address = 0x8
fault code = supervisor read, page not present
Instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc018c788
Stack pointer = 0x10:0xc028ae84
Frame pointer = 0x10:0xc028ae8c
code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
= DPC 0, pres1, def32 1, gran 1
processor eflags = interupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
Current Process = Idle
Interupt mask =
Tap # = 12
panic = page fault
it syncs the disk, states the uptime and then reboots.
system stats:
Dell Dimension XPS P200i
Pentium 200MHz
32 Mb Ram
2 GIG HDD
I read through the FreeBSD site,
http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/hackers.html, section 13.13 - Making the most
of a kernel panic. I read the article and near the end, it stats that
the dump will be about the same site as physical memory (RAM). Since I
have 32M of RAM, it would be rather large to attach.
I have heard that this issue may be related to bad hardware
configuration, but this issue started after I installed FreeBSD4 -stable
(clean). I was previously running v3.2 and fuge'd er attempting to
upgrade via cvs ( obviously inexperienced user...hahaha!)
Could someone provide a little insite into this issue!
Thank you
