home *** CD-ROM | disk | FTP | other *** search
- Hi
- I noticed that there is a way to kill you NetBSD for sure.
- sometimes when I'm looking for files I go on about it like that:
-
- cd /
- dir * |fgrep file_I'm_looking_for, //If that's not successful I go:
- dir */* |fgrep bla_bla //That still works.
- dir */*/* |fgrep bla_bla //disk activity for a few seconds
- and then the system hangs. With the disk inactive (no controll light
- either) I can't even switch to another screen, only a 3-finger-salute
- helps.
- I don't think that should be able to happen. btw I'm using the latest
- kernel, but it did the same with other kernels as well.
