Hi Y'all,

3.0-CURRENT as of last night (23-Aug-97)

In installing -current on a new machine, it panics during installing
packages,  pretty much at random.

Finally got enough installed to put a kernel with ddb to see the trace:

vgonel + 9f
getnewvnode + b3
ffs_vget
ffs_valloc
ufs_makeinode
ufs_create
vn_open
open
syscall
Xsyscall

Crash due to reference to data at location 0x04.  Calling process was cpio.

Who do I talk to about that?

BTW,  2 points:

*  This happens in single-user from the boot floppy, single user
   kernel.GENERIC, multi-user kernel.GENERIC or kernel.DPT.

*  Under normal, even very heavy load, including massive cpio copies,
   even concurrent ones, this does not happen.

Simon
