Looks like a few users over the years have complained about the RESTARTABLE_PANICS being broken. Might still be. Hope that helps. ~Mr. Anderson __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Always something right in front of your face isn't it? Now my question is with the RESTARTABLE_PANICS turned off are my machines going to hang at kernel panics? What is the deal with that? Still waiting for an answer on that one. -- Wil Hatfield ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

What can I lose. Though I would think running the buildworld with a -j4 would have found a ram issue before building the kernel would have. -- Wil Hatfield ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

What I am saying about the GENERIC is that it chokes when trying to install alot of the GENERIC drivers that aren't needed. For instance the aic and aha. Once I disable those the compile gets alot farther and eventually gets to the bge issue. Which I have yet to get resolved. I am going to try the GENERIC again without changing anything at all. Even the firewall and SMP. Just right out of the box GENERIC. If it makes it to 6.1-PRE then I will try the custom kernel. Perhaps the sequence of events is the issue. Or maybe the firewall and SMP. We shall see. -- Wil Hatfield Check your RAM lately?
