It's usually a problem with memory or the secondary cache, but has also been known to be caused by flakey disk controllers, motherboards, and CPUs. I don't think this is disk controller related because you are also having weird kernel panics in areas where I know no bugs exist. Several years ago we had some VM system problems which would sometimes cause similar behavior, but the causes of these problems are well understood and have been fixed for years. The only way to troubleshoot this kind of problem is to first look at your motherboard settings for correctness and then start replacing components until the problem goes away. I would try changing the memory first. -DG David Greenman Core-team/Principal Architect, The FreeBSD Project
