Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-current@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello, I have since I am trying to install FreeBSD on my pentium 90 machine (asus P565TP4XE mainboard) some problems. The first time I was installing directly from the 2.0.5 CD-ROM I have a problem that is at it's best represented by the bug report 688 (Page fault: supervisor write, page not present) in GNATS. When I try to run different kernels (*-SNAP, current etc..) the problem seems to change for me to the obviously well known SIG 11/10 problem. For me the two problems seem to be basically the same but it could be that there are two errors though. OK, I would be glad hearing from you concerning the following questions: - Does anyone have found the same coincidence between the two errors ? - Does the SIG 11 problem exist in 2.0.5 for faster machines ? - Does anyone run an asus P55TP4XE motherboard succesfully with freebsd of *any* kind at this time ? - Does it make sense to run simply a (SIG 11 fixed) GENERIC kernel of current leaving the entire 2.0.5 installation unchanged (for a first time fix) ? - Does anyone supply GERNERIC kernels of current for testing ? Where could I find them ? Thank you all for your great work and patience, Thanks for any reply, Regards, Thomas ___ Thomas Obermair | Inlab Software GmbH tommy@inlab.m.eunet.de | Josef-Wuerth-Str. 1 Fax: +49 89 6411160 | 82031 Gruenwald / Germany
