Has anyone else tried a -current kernel recently? I've got a kernel
from last Friday night's (October 1) sources, and I ended up with a few
core files in / after two reboots:
mona:/ 15> ls -lTtr *.core
-rw------- 1 root wheel 147956 Oct 4 13:19:58 1999 awk.core
Segmentation fault in sbrk()
-rw------- 1 root wheel 16804 Oct 4 13:24:00 1999 grep.core
Illegal instruction (Hit heuristic-fence-post without finding)
-rw------- 1 root wheel 119284 Oct 4 13:24:37 1999 getty.core
Illegal instruction in uname()
-rw------- 1 root wheel 160292 Oct 4 13:24:38 1999 portmap.core
Segmentation fault in readtcp()
-rw------- 1 root wheel 172596 Oct 4 13:24:38 1999 inetd.core
Segmentation fault (Hit beginning of text section without finding)
Seems pretty random - I'm back to my September 8 kernel with no
problems...
Simon.
