I'm trying to get a dump, by telling it to panic once it gets into the debugger.

That's what I expected it to do, but it doesn't. I've set dumpon to dump the kernel to the swap of the boot IDE disk. It's not really a fast disk, but should be able to write 16meg per minute??? > The more important question: Anybody having the same problems? > > Who knows?

So I'll retry running it against /dev/null and see what that does... No use in chasing after an event I cannot reproduce. --WjW
