5.2.1 was a release from the -current branch, so it was not meant for production. If you're using the box just for testing, then why not just run -current? If so, you should be subscribed to -current and read the handbook section on cutting edge at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cutting-edge.html But consider that it does not help much to provide fixes to 5.2.1. All fixes go into the current branch or the stable branch. Thats what the branches are, by definition. Security and as far as I understand only very rare bugfixes go into the release branches, but I think that is quite rare for the 5.x releases. > now the systems is very unstable > the kernel dies each 2, 3 hours > I've been diggin the logs I dont see anything special In general do your best to figure out how to reproduce the problem. Non-reproducible problems are not very helpful in debugging. There is a section on kernel debugging in the developers handbook at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug.html You should at least browse all of the rest of the developers handbook for background though. > How can I track the problem and report it?? The best way to report it is to file a good PR (please read man send-pr for how to write good PR). But a PR against 5.2.1 is not all that helpful, I wouldn't think. But good PR's are certainly what keeps FreeBSD improving. hth, Tim _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
