Another "data point". It was happening here as well on a Pentium 200/MMX. The crash occurred, almost everytime, in a bcopy called from vm_fault according to the kernel debugger (on the rare occassions I could still use it). Whenever I couldn't use the debugger, the Instruction pointer was usually 08:ffffffff. I stuck an old P-III 800MHz/PC133 machine in its place and everything has worked flawlessly since. - brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
