One of my FreeBSD machines began rebooting itself at random intervals. Nothing unusual has been logged prior to the reboots. So I began swapping out parts based upon nothing but suspicion. (I've just replaced the power supply and some RAM, actually.) I may have obtained an *important clue*, however. This morning, 20 minutes before it rebooted, this error was logged: Jan 24 06:45:20 kraeusen /kernel: swap_pager: indefinite wait buffer: device: #da/0x20009, blkno: 256, size: 4096 I'm guessing that refers to this device: crw-r----- 1 root operator 13, 0x00020009 May 31 2000 /dev/da1s1b If anybody has any pointers on how to diagnose this problem futher, I'd appreciate it. One further thought - I have never rebuilt my disk /dev entries after doing a 'make world'. Should I?
