This laptop has given me enough issues and refused to run Winblows - it just hangs or complains about himem.sys, VxD errors (whetever those are). So I decided to install FreeBSD from CD. This is a 4.4-RELEASE CD. Three times it panicked while loading the kernel and rebooted immediately/spontaneously. Now I have an error on the screen when booting from 4.4 CD: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode fault virtual address = 0x3a fault code = supervisor write, page not present instruction pointer = 0x8 :0xc02a1eef stack pointer = 0x10 :0xc06b8dec frame pointer = 0x10 :0xc06b8e8c code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL - 0 current process = Idle interrupt mask = net tty bio cam trap number = 12 panic: page fault Uptime: 0s Could this be a device problem? Memory??
