Hi Philip, I do not have ddb.panic=0 in /etc/sysctl.conf. Would changing the values in /etc/sysctl.conf even help in this case? The machine is crashing during the kernel probe, before that file is read. The panic does not give me a ddb prompt and I can't seem to break into ddb; ctrl-alt-esc just reboots the machine, as does ctrl-alt-del. Also, the machine has no serial port, so I can't try the serial console trick. I'd very much like to help and give you the information you need, but I'm not sure how to do that at this point. -- Joe Gidi [email protected]
