Thanks to the folks here, I managed to finally make it through the installation process, although I did have a couple of kernel panics and crashes (and some really stupid mis-configuration problems on my part). However, yesterday I had a kernel panic and crash after having installed all the stubs for all the standard third-party packages, and was in the process of exiting /stand/sysinstall. Since the machine was configured to save crash dumps, I now actually have one sitting in /var/adm/crash (although this may not be all that useful, since the kernel is the default GENERIC, and I haven't had a chance to rebuild it with just the stuff I want/need or with a full symbol table, etc....). Anybody interested in taking a look at this crash dump and trying to figure out what went wrong? -- These are my opinions -- not to be taken as official Skynet policy ____________________________________________________________________ |o| Brad Knowles, Belgacom Skynet NV/SA |o| |o| Systems Architect, News/mail/FTP Admin Rue Col.
