The following reply was made to PR i386/47647; it has been noted by GNATS. From: =?ISO-8859-1?Q?Jo=E3o_Carlos_Mendes_Lu=EDs?= <jonny@jonny.eng.br> To: Giorgos Keramidas <keramida@freebsd.org> Cc: bug-followup@freebsd.org, Alessandro Fernandes Martins <amartins@embratel.net.br> Subject: Re: i386/47647: init died with signal 6 Date: Sat, 12 Apr 2003 01:57:47 -0300 I am not the owner of the machine, but in the recent past I helped to configure it. The strange part is that the same init runs with an older kernel, so it's probably not a problem in init itself. Signal 6 is SIGABRT, and that should be used only in assert calls, IIRC. Do you think it is possible to find where (and why) in init the abort ocurred? Should then he build an init with debugging symbols also? The machine is a very important production machine (backbone squid cache) and is not easy to stop it to test, so I'd like to minimize the tests to do. Thanks for your help...
