But, after reading this article, I don't think it's the hardware failure for my case. I am compiling kernel, all other ports flawlessly under FreeBSD. Also, I had no problem installing Redhat 7.1 and compiling Linux kernel 2.4.6 (did it yesterday!). I've tried reinstalling FreeBSD via ftp 7 times (5 times yesterday, 2 times today) all with different settings in BIOS for I thought it might be the settings in BIOS that was causing the problem. But, for all 7 tries, it always fails at exactly same point of installation, i.e., when the installation asks if "linux binaries for compatibility" should be enabled. If I choose yes, then it tries to grab the file from FreeBSD ftp site and it crashes with "segment fault (core dumped).... something about signal 11" and it says that it'll try to save the current configuration and computer reboots after a while. If it was a hardware problem, I doubt it would happen at exactly same spot for 7 installation trials! Now, FreeBSD is installed and running. But, unfortunately, when I try to grab some packages from ftp using /stand/sysinstall, it still gives the same error at exactly same spot! It tries to grab the package from FreeBSD ftp site... then I get that segment fault error! However, grabbing the Distribution files via ftp from /stand/sysinstall works flawlessly. I'm at the moment installing everything via (make install clean distclean) method. Sung To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
