A kernel from friday woud drop to ddb with the sun standard mmu miss and something about unaligned access, a kernel with todays sources with a pretty stripped down config just freezes when doing buildworlds. I'll try produce a usable debugging trace tomorrow. The reason I asked is because the machine has been quite stable, I couldnt kill it easily atleast :). So this relative instability ( aka the machine would die within 2 minutes ) was somewhat of an upleasant surprise. Kudos for the hard work by the way. I have an ultra60 as a spare, would there helpful for freebsd development if I placed it online on a fast link ? -- Sten Spans "What does one do with ones money, when there is no more empty rackspace ?"
