After all the fixes done on the 5.4-STABLE and 6.0 codebases my Dell PE1750 still reboots randomly. Again last night at 03.03 :- ( essages still shows nothing, nothing special was going on at the time (loadavg ~ 0.00). It's running: FreeBSD xyz 6.0-RELEASE-p4 FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE-p4 #0: Sun Feb 19 21:15:01 CET 2006 root@xyz:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SMP i386 What I've tried to fix the problems: - kern_proc.c patch submitted to freebsd-stable by Don Lewis. - disable HTT - upgrade to 5-STABLE - upgrade to 6.0-RELEASE-p1,2,3,4 What we've _not_ tried: - Swap memory This because we have 2850's that experience exactly the same problems, just less frequently (about once every 4 months). I'm completely at a loss, and inclined to remove FreeBSD and install "another OS" as it is an important management machine for us, that reboots about monthly. Any clues, tips, help, know bugs?
