I think I need to clear some things up after reading this: << The fact that he mentions "top" and "ps" specifically makes me think "userland is out of sync with the kernel". My suggestion is to follow the instructions in /usr/src/UPDATING, beginning around line 308 (updating from 4.0-RELEASE or later to 4-STABLE) exactly before jumping to any conclusions. >> I have upgraded my system before. And I have followed all instructions properly using the latest information and checking /usr/src/UPDATING. The system was running 21 days already without any problems! Also the problems appears after a few hours, or maybe less then one hour. So before that time I can use all commands/programs without any problems, after that programs like reboot, fastboot etc. stop functioning also mail stops functioning (it gives an error that indicated it can't create a temporary file in /tmp), ofcourse I checked if the disk isn't full or something but every partition has at least 100 MB of free space. Anyways I ordered a new harddisk. I will first try to analyze the problem further, and maybe it's something different that can be fixed, so then I have a nice extra harddisk. And if it can't be fixed and isn't a software problem I will replace the bad harddisk. And let's hope it isn't the controller... :/ Regards, Peter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
