Re: Freebsd 5.3 hangs under heavy load????
Hi again, I have two Seagate SCSI drives 36GB and 8GB RAM and installed 5.3-REL with PAE and SMP support. Now the problem arises that the system hangs under heavy load and there are no error messages nothing. I have to hard boot it everytime it hangs. Then I tried with only SMP and the machine still hangs. I tried using New memory and a Maxtor 36Gb SCSI drive , still hangs but was up for longer perios 13hrs.. Any one know about this problem. Alos tried with 5.4-Prerelease same results. Any help would be great, Scott any help.

Re: Freebsd 5.3 problem
HI all, I am running FreeBSd 5.3-REL Today my system simply locked up. There was no error sent to console, to any logs, nor the monitor screen. It was totally unresponsive to network, serial console, or keyboard. After 4 power-cycles, we were unable to get past the BIOS as it was reporting "RAM R/W error". I have a screen shot of this from the serial port console, but it is the same as the one from before. If I hit the "F1" key to continue, FreeBSD seemingly reports ACPI-0277: *** Warning: Invalid checksum in table [APIC] (98, sum 84 is not zero) just before booting. It is after the boot screen, but before the copyright is displayed by the kernel. Finally, I turned the machine off for about 2 minutes, then turned it back on. It was able to get through the BIOS RAM test and reboot cleanly, and the file systems cleaned themselves up and the database did so as well, and it appears to be running fine. Any ideas what is going on. Thanks A ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

The system is in Co-lo so no power problems. Yes memtest86. I did run for the whole weekend. No errors. I need to check the loads if the system comes up. it just shut down. It gave me this error message. Mar 15 03:52:14 d03 kernel: amr0: bad slot 17 completed I read under many lists that the amr drives dies under heavy loads. But what about the system not going through post and giving RAM R/W failure.

Re: Freebsd 5.3 hangs under heavy load????
Hi all, I have two Seagate SCSI drives 36GB and 8GB RAM and installed 5.3-REL with PAE and SMP support. Now the problem arises that the system hangs under heavy load and there are no error messages nothing. I have to hard boot it everytime it hangs. Any ideas what is going on. It is a Supermicro MB. 2GB PC2100 DDR266 ECC/Reg Intel Xeon 2.4 GHz 533FSB Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I am trying to install FreeBSD 5.3 on Tyan 5350 MB with 40GB ATA Maxtor drive. Two issues 1) It doesnt detect the ATA drive but When I boot under safe then it does detect it and goes through installation. 2) It doesnt detect the broadcom interfaces. They are Broadcom BCM5721 PCI Express GbE. Anything from FreeBSD Gurus. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.
