It hung right after printing :'Starting final network daemons:.'. A Control-C did not snap it out of :its funk. I booted the machine single-user, so the vx0 did not get brought up. I did an ifconfig on it by hand. It took the address. Five seconds later I got a console message: Out of mbuf clusters - increase maxusers! And the machine froze hard. I built a DDB kernel (GENERIC + options DDB) and brought it up single user again. I unplugged the 10baseT cable and then ifconfig'd the interface. No problem. I fool around for a minute to make sure it's not going to blow up, and then plug the cable in. Instantly out of mbuf clusters again. Can't get DDB to kick in via CTRL-ALT-ESC (is that still the way?) the box is hung. Rats!!! Maybe I should just pull the 3C905 so we can keep testing it in another box, and I'll put this machine into production with the 3C509. --Paul To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
