To be completely honest, Linux is generally immune too (haven't > tried recently though). Yes - that's probably the case here. Consider, for example, that crashme can run on some machines, but you can bring them down quickly with the well-known "ping attack." I'm betting that crashme won't show us anything and FreeBSD will pass this test with flying colors. However, I will still be experiencing my panics. Let me add that I'm not sure my problems are the hardware; as: 1) This problem didn't show up until 2.1. 2) This problem does show up with an aha1542B as well as IDE drive - Dave Rivers -
