Can you set up a serial console on this system? If so, enable these kernel options: options DDB options WITNESS options INVARIANTS options INVARIANTS_SUPPORT options BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER Boot through the serial console then trigger the bug and send a break from serial. If you drop into ddb, then its a Giant deadlock. If you can get that, then do 'show locks' from ddb to get a list of potential culprits, and 'tr' for what its stuck doing. The kernel handbook section on kernel debugging will be a useful read. -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.FreeBSD.org _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
