hmm....

how easy is it to install an earlier 3.x ? (3.0-RELEASE --> 3.2-RELEASE) it would be interesting to see if that fixes the problem

unfortunately - i dont have any spare HD's to stick it on - or i would try it

i tell you what - this was *REALLY* getting me bugged - i thought i had fried the CPU / MB somehow...

Yup, you're hitting the same ones, and the reason this box is now Intel P-III 600E, Shuttle AV61 MB, 128MB ram (same stick I've been using).

I think AMD has an issue in the K6-2 series.

I give up.

Hey ya Larry

Just a quick question - *exactly* what was the symptoms of your problem?

ive just turned a K6-2 300 into a BSD box, and make world fails with SIG's 10, 11 and 12 randomly. I know its not the memory - i have been thrashing that memory for 12 mths now - never skipped a beat. The CPU / Motherboard / Memory used to run BSD in the 2.2.8 - 3.2 days no problems. Now - no luck :( - i get random panics, SIG 10's to 12's and core dumps - unfortunately - i have no idea how to debug them :(

FYI - System specs

AMD K6-2 300 MHz Jetway 542-B Motherboard (AT) 64 meg PC-100 Intel i740 video card 4.3 gig Maxtor HDD (IDE) Generic NIC

Well, I'm back... Put the AMD K6-2/550 on a ATX board (Shuttle HOT-597), and the

128MB

memory.

This power supply supposedly has enough beef to run the K6.

Still have a problem with make world.

HOWEVER, here is the strange part, if I turn SOFTUPDATES on, we can

make

worlds all day long

with out an error.

Anyone got a good explanation for this?

Also, the SCSI controller is a AHA-2940, with 1.11 firmware, if that

makes

a difference.
