Hi,

I'm trying to install FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE on a Compaq Deskpro XE466 with a
Qunatum LPS540 drive, and a Compaq CDROM.  The machine has 32MB Ram, and a
3 network interfaces.

When installing, it gets to extracting chunk 8 of bindist and panics with
a vvf_dup alloc.

Now, before you say, maybe the hardware is bad...

This very machine has been running 3.4 for over 4 months without any
problems, and infact I ended up re-installing 3.4 on it without
difficulties after trying to install 4.0.
I do want to run 4.0 since I can't seem to make PPPoE work on 3.4,
but it works on another 4.0 box I have.

The Deskpro 466XE 3.4 box is running ipfw and I am using it as a firewall.

If anyone has any suggestions regarding either when 4.0 isn't installing
or how to make PPPoE work on 3.4 please send me email as I'm not on these
mailing lists.


Thanks!

Andrew Webster
