This seems to make things more stable here (CFLAGS=-O in /etc/make.conf) - as if building the kernel with -pipe sometimes produces a kernel that subsequently murders the compiler with sig11/sig4 all the time. This is just marginally more than theory at the moment though. You may need to bootstrap a new kernel by building it on another machine to get things running again. > Hi all, > > I experiment very strange problems here at the moment with > a new server. > > Buildworld survives about 30 secondy, the errors are SIG4 (90%) > and SIG11 (10%).
