I'm in the process of installing 386BSD 0.2.2 on a clean Compaq 386/25 with
16M of RAM, an Ultrastor 12F, and two Maxtor XT4380E 380 MB ('type 38') ESDI
drives. No sector mapping, configured with identical root, usr, and var
file systems (just being paranoid... /usr1 and /var1 might well be combined
after I get things up). I'm using the 0.2.2 kernel from agate. With the
distribution loaded on /var1 (temporarily mounted as /tmp) I have been
getting reproducible kmem_map crashes using the /tmp/extract program. Using
"cat bin* | compress -d | cpio -pcdumv" works, but I'd like to find out
what the problem is.
Any ideas? This is a pretty vanilla (if old) installation.
