I finally got 2x128MB of RAM from a hidden spare U5 :p
I took the actual RAM from my U10 and put the "clean" RAM from the U5 into=
the U10.
Then I started compiling packages: net/wget and shells/bash when OK.
Just before leaving work I started a kinda bulk-build (with pkg_chk).
I have a script on my i386 workstation
(while [ "`ping -n -c 1 U10`" ]; do sleep 10; done; echo "dead"| mailx ...)
which should tell me when the U10 freeze (if it does this WE).
until now, I didn't receive the email, meaning the U10 should still be UP =
and compiling.
maybe all my freeze bug are just because of a dead set of RAM :(
next news on monday !
have a nice week-end allz !
cheers,
Jo
