Hit ctl-alt-esc on console to enter DDB (enable this kernel option
if you haven't already). Type "trace" to find out what is hung. If
this doesn't work, attach a serial console and do a break there and
"trace".
Interesting, as I have been trying the last 3 days to reproduce
freezes that people reported on 5.0 on (specifically) the ASUS BP6
mainboard.
I was one of the people having 'hard-lock' problems.
I have not had a single unexplained lock since I upgraded my BIOS
to the latest, version RU, and did another makeworld. I can't say
which fixed the 'hard-locks', the BIOS upgrade, or changes
in the kernel.
ACPI does not appear to work on this motherboard. I have to
disable it. The attached asl file gives errors when I try
using iasl on it.
Anyone have suggestions for the correct fixes to it?
I ran continuous make -j16 buildworlds to see if I could break it,
but no luck (or very good luck, depends on your perspective ;-)
