It apparently doesn't work on anything but x86, if the above is any indication. > Should I submit a bug report? If you do, submit a better bug report. Build a debug kernel with ntfs and DDB built in (config -g), install it (make install). Crash the machine with ntfs. When the machine panics, you'll be at the ddb prompt: get a traceback from ddb: ddb> trace Write this down (or cut-n-paste from the serial console), and include it in the bug report. After rebooting, run gdb -k kernel.debug and list the pc and the ra and include the line of code which causes the crash in the bug report: Eg, (kgdb) l * 0xfffffc00003fd6cc (kgdb) l * 0xfffffc00003fdab8 Even still, unless its something obvious, don't expect too much action. I don't know of anybody with ntfs interest AND an alpha. Drew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
