Cool, yeah, planning on looking into that. :) Just need to find a program for that now, any suggestions? http://www.freebsddiary.org/serial-console.php might be useful for setting up the serial console. It references a section called Setting Up the Serial Console (17.6) in the FreeBSD HandBook, which at first glance appears to be pretty comprehensive and easy-to-follow.

kernel panic question
Would this be a problem with the hardware, kernel, or what? What is happening is I mount /dev/ad2s1e and them move files to it from /dev/ad0s1e. It will go nicely for a second or two then I will get a kernel panic. I also risk getting a kernel panic if /dev/ad2s1e is even mounted. I have had trouble with this befor but did not look to closely into it. The first time I had this problem was when I tried mounting what is now /dev/ad0s1e from /dev/ad2s1e. That drive works nicely on /dev/ad0s1e but did the same thing as this new drive is doing when I tried to put it on /dev/ad2s1e. I managed to create the fs and ect succesfully on the drive when it was mounted on /dev/ads1e originally and manage to write a bit to it, but if I tried to move or write any thing large to it would kernel panic just like this new one is doing. the error message I get is something along the lines of... Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode a few more lines none of which I remember :( then something like interupt: bios a few more lines which I don't remember too The hardware in question is...

If you want help with this kind of problem, you need to supply evidence. Otherwise people won't bother to help. We don't even know what version of FreeBSD you're talking about here. In general, if you get a panic, you need to provide a dump to find out what's going on. For it to be any use, you should ensure that you have a kernel with debugging symbols. There used to be a section on this in the handbook, but I can't find it any more.

If you find anything wrong with the text, please let me know. Don't count on a dump being enough. Check your log files for any messages which might help.

I reccomend setting up a serial console. you'll need a null modem cable and another system to connect the console to. capturing kernel panics via log files is tricky, It's not just tricky, it's meaningless. You appear to be confusing kernel dumps with logging panic messages. Those are two different things. The latter doesn't work on the local system because there's nothing left to log the message. I've never been able to on linux AFAIK Linux doesn't support kernel dumps. or free/open bsd, maybe my panics have just been too severe. That's possible. But I think you're misunderstanding. on the flip side the kernel panics i've had on solaris managed to get logged to the syslog server :) Logging the panic message isn't enough.

In that case you're out of luck. I told you what to do. You chose to do something else. Hehe, not found much info on kernel dumps and thus with out info on it there is not much I can do. Thus as far as I can tell not much reason to pursue it. The only possibly useful think I have come across so far has been BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER.
