I don't think that's been conclusively established yet, so statements of the form above are a bit unhelpful. The problem may well lie elsewhere in the system, as a parameter in vm_map_copy_entry() is being unexpectedly set to NULL in the backtrace which you provided me with. If more people can exercise the same codepath as you appear to be exercising with different configurations, then I will have more to go on. BMSReceived on Fri Sep 19 2003 - 15:47:59 UTC
