Hi

I've tried to setup a diskless station:
486/66 ASUS SP3G, WD8013 (SMC), 8MB

It crashed with 2.0.5-RELEASE and latest 2.1-SNAP after 10-60 seconds
of any swap-activity. (some xterms and 2x emacs)

My server is also FreeBSD2.0.5 with enough disk-space.
I've tried it also with another motherboard/SIMMS/ethercard/... in any
combinations and I think, it is not a hardware-problem. 

Any suggestions?

Lars.
