Hi folks,
posted this last week, but got no response. Maybe this subject is more
appropriate.

Heavy activity like make buildworld crashes my system with signal 11 or
fatal trap 12.
Disabling swap in /etc/rc solves the problem after a reboot. Also "mkae
buildworld" in single user mode works fine. But a system without swap is not
very nice. What should I do about it?
I already set all hard disk relevant settings in the BIOS to the most
conservative values. No change.

Some hints about my system:

MoBo ASUS P2B with 128 MB non-ECC RAM, Celeron 400MHz

su-2.04# uname -a
FreeBSD myserver.mydomain.de 4.2-STABLE FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #0:

disklabel /dev/ad0s3 snippet:

/dev/ad2s1d on /usr (ufs, local)
/dev/ad0s3e on /var (ufs, local)
/dev/ad0s9h on /usr/src (ufs, local)

As you can see, I have /usr and /usr/src on two different disks, which
are on two different IDE controllers.

Ciao
Siegbert
