Hi.

I'm running 2.2-GAMMA, on a DTK motherboard w/512kb, with a Cyrix P150+
processor and 48MB RAM. There are 3xIDE 1 gig drives, a SMC EtherPower
NIC and a Diamond Stealth 64.

Over the last four days, my machine keeps breaking into the debugger, with
the following :

Fatal Trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address	= 0x0
fault code		= supervisor read, page not present
instruction pointer	= 0x8:0x0
stack pointer		= 0x10:0xefbffe54
frame pointer		= 0x10:0xefbffe5c
code segment		= base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
			= dpl 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
processor eflags	= interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
current process		= 248 (halt)
interrupt mask		=
kernel:type 12 trap, code=0

(Sorry for any typo's - difficult to type this stuff)

I haven't changed anything recently, except for world'ing 2 days prior to
these traps. I suspect it's hardware based, because I've put the drives
into another machine and it works fine (although MUCH slower - 486's still
work :-)

Any pointers on how to see what the exact problem is ? Does the above trap
help ? I've tried various combinations of RAM, wiggling everything in,
etc, but it doesn't help.

TIA,
