Hi

I have an unstable FreeBSD-4.5-STABLE server with 4 CPU and 3GB
memory, a little less than 2Tb disks.

Every 1-5 days it crashes with an vm_page_unwire: invalid wire count: 0

I made a kernel with debug enabled, installed it, turned on crash dump
and will now try to see, what triggers the error. But GDB voes:

Any ideas about what to do?

Best regards,
