Re: bad /dev/cuaa1??
Stupid question, but have you tried remaking the device node?

This is rather bizarre. I have two virtually identical USR modems; I also have vitually identical ppp and tip and cu setup--I just copied over tarballs from this system to sage.thought.org. According to ppp: Warning: deflink: /dev/cuaa1: Bad file descriptor tip and cu (cu -pport1 dir) indicate that something is amiss with /dev/cuaa1. The LED's are on my older modem are not what they were some months ago. If I remember correctly the switches in back were fine so I shouldn't have to change anything. Can anybody figure out how to get this second link working? thanks much, gary -- Gary D.

Re: AMD K6-2 / 550
Hey Steve... do you mean loader as in BootEasy (or whatever it is called) or just prior to the "twirling baton" stage? if the latter - how can you bypass it? Cheers G. -- Greg Work Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- - Original Message - From: "Steve O'Hara-Smith" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 03, 2000 6:25 PM Subject: Re: AMD K6-2 / 550 Hi, A possibility (only). I have two AMD K6-2 boxes currently both of which work fine. BUT on one of them if I use the loader then I get crashes, unrecoverable disc errors and all sorts of nasty things. Booting straight into the kernel is fine, I can run forever under heavy load. On the other machine I have no problems at all with or without loader. See if not using the loader makes any difference, if so there may be something trackable.

Re: AMD K6-2 / 550
I don't know if this applies but I have a k6-2 400mhz that was getting signal 11's frequently during compiling or cpu extensive functions. And simply adding heat sink compound between cpu and fan solved it. Dave That easy huh?? hmm...i may have to see if i can scam some thermal grease. (i will bury my head in the sand for a while if this turns out to be the solution :) - im currently using the frag tape that came attached to the bottom of the heatsink ) G.

Re: AMD K6-2 / 550
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. You mean it never discovered a problem? What software were you running? Was running win98 - and used to dual boot 3.0 -- 3.2-STABLE with 98 It got retired to a straight win98 box (ducks objects thrown at him) when i got a second machine 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 :( If they're hardware related, there's probably not much to see except that things will be different each time. I suspect that a large number of crashes on Microsoft machines are in fact due to flaky hardware. Despite my low opinion of Microsoft, I have not had an unexpected crash of a Microsoft system in years (it helps, of course, if you don't use them much :-). the funny thing was that it never skipped a beat under M$ after a bios flash (it didnt like my vid card - but thats another issue :) ) /me is intregued G.
