To: hackers@freebsd.org Date: Thu, 11 Apr 1996 21:19:13 -0400 (EDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL13 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-hackers@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Are there any known problems with dump and 2.1R. Recently, I performed a level 0 dump on a 2.1R system (ALL UFS) and got input/output (possibly hardware) errors. There were also some errors about the controller card being dead (NCR53C810). The only thing that actually made it in syslog were the following: vm_fault: pager input (probably hardware) error, PID 0 failure swap_pager: I/O error - pagein failed; blkno 456, size 4096, error 5 etc. The interesting thing was that everything would work fine in single user mode, but not in multi-user (even though no one else was online). Sorry I can't be more specific here, but the errors scrolled two quickly and once the error occured I could not do anything with the system. Every command I tried resulted in an input/ouput error. Any Ideas?
