I never said something along these lines. :) All I told you was that if you refer to previous posts and want people to look at them, then you should provide a handle which identifies the message (Message-Id or archive URL) or enough characteristics for a search (Date, From, To, Subject). Or reply to this very message and cite the relevant parts (*NOT* all the surrounding stuff and have the receiver waste precious time to identify what's important and what's not -- maybe even worse by reading a message backwards). > fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode > fault virtual address = 0xeb65d > instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc00eb55e > [ ... ] Sorry, but this info is just as good as telling us "there's something wrong". All of these lines do contain important information, but only you can make some use of them. Since these detailled information depends on _your_ hardware and _your_ software setup, nobody in a geographical location different from your spot (limited to the room the machine lives in) can read anything into it. The handbook has an extensive chapter on making use of crash dumps. I suggest you read it and provide the extract (call stack with maybe parameter dumps) or even a solution (patch). That is not meant to drive you away, but it's the only possible reaction.

It's always better to know what you turn on/off instead of trying this blindly ... :) From your response I'm not clear if this was your "hang at boot" problem or not. Or if it was one of your problems. Since you have to check the crash locally, I heavily trimmed your kernel config and just put note on a few selected items. Take it as hints and keep in mind that I'm not a guru. I might err as well. :> > ############################################################################ > ## > KERNEL CONFIG: > > [ ... ] > > #makeoptions DEBUG=-g #Build kernel with gdb(1) debug symbols Enable this and set the "dumpdev" in rc.conf to point to your swap device.

One is usually ISA and the other PCI, you probably have only one controller in your machine and can leave out the other line(s). Your dmesg tells you you have atapci, so you can drop the "at isa" lines. virtually yours 82D1 9B9C 01DC 4FB4 D7B4 61BE 3F49 4F77 72DE DA76 Gerhard Sittig true | mail -s "get gpg key" Gerhard.Sittig@gmx.net -- If you don't understand or are scared by any of the above ask your parents or an adult to help you.
