Finally got FreeBSD installed on a spare 486 in the office (actually an
Overdrive 83MHz). Unfortunately, the machine panics every so often and
reboots itself. Here's the message it gives:

--------------
Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
fault virtual address	= 0xf12acff0
fault code			= supervisor write, page not present

<snip -- I have this all written down if anyone wants it>

processor eflags		= interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
current process		= 329 (bash)
interrupt mask		= net tty bio

panic: page fault
-----------

Then it proceeds to try and sync the disks and reboot, but syncing the
disks FAIL! It prints a line of "2"'s and then says "giving up", and then
goes to reboot.

Is this evidence of a hardware anomaly?
