- You know we really should have an FAQ for comp.sys.sgi (any takers? :-)
-
- There have been several reported problems like this (I reported this problem
- myself a while back) and it turned out to be a hardware fault. We got a CPU
- board replaced, and viola -- the problem disappeared.
-
- If you are on a multi CPU machine (which I guess you are) try using the
- runon(1) command to see if it crashes only on one CPU. If it does, then
- I will bet that CPU (board) needs to be replaced.
-
- Hope this helps,
