Date: 21 Jun 1996 16:30:31 GMT Organization: Clinet, Espoo, Finland. Lines: 24 Message-ID: <4qein7$k6p@news.clinet.fi> NNTP-Posting-Host: oranssi.appelsiini.net X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] I have a problem with 2.1-RELEASE dying from time to time. The problem seem to be something with swap partition since the system seems to go down only when it swaps. A couple of times I have managed to see vm_page_xxxxxx errors on console before it boots itself. Sometimes the systems just stops forking new processes. All old processes work fine but nothing new can be started. That applies to login and su also. Sometimes the system just suddenly boots itself. Without no reason... There is a nfs mount from the FreeBSD system to a AlphaStation with Digital Unix, and the alpha console says time to time "Stale file handle in nfs server iso.appelsiini.net <--- the FreeBSD system" Is this all just because of corrupted fs or swap partition, or should I throw away my 1gig SCSI drive ? :) -- BlAhBlAHBLahBlAHBLAhBlahBlahBlahBLAhBlaHGBlahBLAHBlaHBlAHblahBlahBLAh
