I can newly install 5.1-RC1, but I can not upgrade from > 5.1-BETA or 5.1-RC1 to 5.1-RC1 with Xeon or Pentium4 without panics. I had exactly this problem on my IBM T30 (1.8 GHz P4). Random panics, usually 4 or 12. Not repeatable.Oddly, many (most?) of the failures were not during compiles, but doing rm or chmod or something similarly trivial! Very weird. After trying for a while to get a clean build, I finally started re-starting the buildworld with -DNOCLEAN (occasionally after deleting something that was in progress) during the build. Once I got a new system build, things were fine again. I immediately rebuilt again, as it was possible that something had been messed up in one of the panics and I missed it. I could also not update some ports. I have no idea of the cause, but I have not seen it again. R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
