I had run FreeBsd-STABLE for several years on another motherboard, so I thought it was time to upgrade. I have two P-ATA discs mirrored using vinum, including the root. Apart from that it's all per the basic install so far, except that I have to boot with no ACPI in order to actually finish booting (hint.acpi.0.disabled=1 in /boot/loader.conf). With ACPI the system will not boot. My problem is that when I try to rebuild the kernel, I get panics. I've had two different kinds so far: panic: lockmgr: locking against myself cpuid = 0; syncing disks, buffers remaining... 3839 3839 panic: free locked buf cpuid = 0; I also got the following this morning when trying to buildworld: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode The instruction pointer was 0x8:0xc061l05b and I'm running 5.2.1-RC2 GENERIC, so maybe it'll be useful for someone. Does anyone have any ideas as to why it's so unstable? I'm running the same on a Compaq Deskpro (except no vinum) and all is well. Is it a problem with the nForce-2 chipset or maybe vinum? I've never run vinum before as my old motherboard had a promise RAID controller on board. The problem seems to be load related as it also happens after cvsup-ing when doing a portsdb -Uu.
