To manually transcribe the initial kernel errors (it's just a bit of typing, really), from the first screen shot: # ahci0: attempting to idle device # ahci0: couldn't recover NCQ error, failing all outstanding commands. # mode = 0100600, inum = 131, fs = /tmp # panic: ffs_valloc: dup alloc ...and from the second: # ahci0: NCQ errored slot 27 is idle (00000004 active) # mode = 0100600, inum = 23, fs = /tmp # panic: ffs_valloc: dup alloc So, ahci, the disk controller, is where the first error is reported. This is where we need the contents of /var/run/dmesg from this box, with the complete dmesg output. (Rule of thumb: when reporting *any* problem, include the dmesg from the box so we have some idea of the set up of the involved machine.) Philip Guenther
