Recently one of the FreeBSD machines where I work has been crashing on a
semi-regular basis, once or twice a day. The dmesg for the machine is at
the bottom of this post. These crashes started very recently, less than
a week ago. Before that, the machine had been very reliable (several 100

You haven't been looking into 4.0, have you?

Dont even try, Cardbus (32-bit) isn't supported by FreeBSD yet.
I made the mistake of buying that exact card :P

I think people are forgetting that you do not necessarily need to download
the entire ISO image in order to make a fresh install of FreeBSD. Back

I will attest to that, as I have several Solaris-x86 machines, some on
2.6. and some on 2.7, all running the DEC cards in 100T-FDX mode like a
champ. As some are news servers, they run 20-30mpbs constantly almost
24/7 without a hitch, so they work well under Solaris. Guess it was

But, how much would the ISO be able to be compressed? The source is
already a split, compressed tarball, for example.
That's not spurprising. When I tried it, Solaris 2.6 x86 didn't support
full-duplex 100Base-TX on very many devices. The DEC tulip cards were one of
the few that had drivers that supported full-duplex.

I'm trying to get a WaveLAN/IEEE Turbo (Silver) card working on a
two month old -current system using the ISA bus card which comes
with the PCMCIA WaveLAN unit.
"pccardc dumpcis" says it wants IRQ 6, so I've made sure that that

But given that he has probably been sat there for 2.5 days already, is that
a major problem?

After reading the announcement...
Congratulations to the FreeBSD community
another milestone!
A great OS...
But for the ISO images... IS it a problem to gzip
them
They take less space on the master site and the mirror
sites and they take less bandwidth!
Shouldn't be a problem I think!
