I hope we can ponder this one out... My FreeBSD machine will randomly crash. Well, I shouldn't say randomly. Usually when under a heavy load or a lot of disk usage(kernel rebuild, make clean, etc.) Usually I work remotly so I can't see the error output but this time I set my laptop up right next to my FreeBSD box and ran a make clean. Not even 3 minutes passed before it crashed again. Here is the output. I am copying this from my console so it might not be perfect. I'll try my best though. Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0x403e3738 fault code = supervisor write, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc024d82e stack pointer = 0x10:0xc30d9e60 frame pointer = 0x10:0xc30d9e70 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 = 8263 (make) interrupt mask = net tty bio cam trap number = 12 panic: page fault syncing disks... 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 4 giving up Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a key on the console to abort Well, now I have to wait for the machine to reboot so I can send this message out. Here is a little more info on the machine: FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE CPU: Cyrix 6x86 (486-class CPU) 2 NIC's Running natd, ipfw, sendmail, apache, named I will be happy to send any more info if you need it.
