Good day all.

I beg your kind consideration of my problem.  As the subject indicates,
my box has become terribly unstable since I cvsup'd to 4.6.2-RELEASE on
Sunday 18/08/2002.

I have had some pointers on the -questions list, but the help has dried
up since I posted the output of gdb.  Perhaps you folks on this list
will be better equipped to respond.

I have rebuilt the kernel with debugging enabled, and have run gdb on
the last two crashes.  This is the first time ever I am using gdb or
anything like it, so my digging is very superficial.  I will do whatever
additional things might be needed if anyone will just push me in the
right direction.

gdb from crash 0 : http://docs.perimeter.co.za/crash/20020821_2230_a
gdb from crash 1 : http://docs.perimeter.co.za/crash/20020822_0905_a

As at this time the box has managed to stay up for just over a day.

# uname -a
FreeBSD obelix.perimeter.co.za 4.6.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.6.2-RELEASE #7:

# uptime

I am a little hesitant to submit a PR until someone more experienced
indicates that I should be doing so.  Perhaps the problem here is
something I did ?!?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Patrick O'Reilly.
