I came in this morning and noticed my dual-Athlon machine had rebooted during the night. I had just rebuilt current on it late last Thursday night. The previous rebuild had been on July 27th. This is the first time it had crashed on me in quite some time. The machine is not doing much, other than it usually has two copies of the "folding at home" client running. Other than that it's just use as a testing machine, and as a hot-backup for another server that I have. The dump "info" file says: Good dump found on device /dev/ad0s4b Architecture: i386 Architecture version: 1 Dump length: 1073217536B (1023 MB) Blocksize: 512 Dumptime: Mon Aug 16 01:53:21 2004 Hostname: santropez.netel.rpi.edu Versionstring: FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT #0: Fri Aug 13 00:20:36 EDT 2004 root_at_santropez.netel.rpi.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/Dual-Athlon2k Panicstring: APIC: Previous IPI is stuck There is a 1-gig dump file sitting here. I don't know who would be the most interested in this, or what I should do with it. If you need more information, let me know what to do. I tried following the advice at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug-gdb.html but that web page suggests: gdb -k kernel.debug /var/crash/vmcore.0 and the gdb that I have replied: gdb: unrecognized option `-k' -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad_at_gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad_at_freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih_at_rpi.eduReceived on Mon Aug 16 2004 - 16:23:40 UTC
