I think I know why a lot of people _aren't_ seeing this panic: it doesn't show up if you #undef DEVT_FASCIST in kern/kern_conf.c . I found this by accident because I can't get a crash dump using the wd driver. I get dumping to dev (0, 131089), offset 524288 dump device bad Suspecting this whole major/minor/dev_t business, I #undef'd DEVT_FASCIST and all of a sudden I can't reproduce the panic to test dumps. ;-) I'm not whining, I just want to make sure that it's a known issue, not something that's completely resolved.
