Hello all,
I'm having a problem with FreeBSD 2.1.7.1 since I installed a 9G harddrive.
My configuration is
AT&T Globalyst 600
Pentium 90
48M RAM
Quantum PD1050iS 3142 (1G HD)
FUJITSU M2949S-512 0142 (9G HD)
Adaptec 2940 controler
The computer reboots at various times throughout the day. How do I go about
tracking down the reason the reboot occurs? I've checked the
/var/log/messages file but there is nothing that points to a potential
problem. I've included the boot hardware detection log to the
/var/log/messages file at the end of this post.
Since this behavior happened after I added 32 M RAM and the 9G HD, I'm
guessing this is what might be causing the problem.
I had originally installed FreeBSD with 16 M RAM and 1 G HD. When I added
32M of RAM I did not increase the size of the swap partition. Could this be a
problem?
I'm using the machine as a news server so I want to solve this problem. I
would appreciate any advice you have to offer.
