The following reply was made to PR kern/74635; it has been noted by GNATS.

Well if you decide to follow up, you could simply click on the bottom link in the web pr (http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=3D74635).=20 OR you can simply reply to the bug either to freebsd-gnats-submit but then make sure you keep the subject the way it is (plus a Re: or whatever in front). When replying make sure you only quote the absolutely necessary and don't do jeopary quoting. Reply between the lines you refer to (like I do now). > Make sure you did "ifconfig fxp0 up" before issuing the above commands,= =20 > it worked for me > some time ago on stationary pc. I noticed that doing # ifconfig vlan0 create # ifconfig vlan0 vlan 1 vlandev fxp0 and # ifconfig vlan0 up panics the kernel as well. That means its not the assigning of the IP but its the 'bringing up the interface', which is the problem. Actually I had to do # ifconfig fxp0 up AFTER configuring the vlan0 interface and BEFORE assigning an IP (thus bringing the vlan0 interface up). Then it worked for me without crash! Thanks to you, Micha, since this is a workaround, I replied directly to gnats as well. But the crash should still be fixed. Since we tracked down the issue to a very specific action I think this shouldn't be too hard anymore. Regards, --=20 Jonas Nagel <fireball@zerouptime.ch>
