Message-ID: Date: 25 Mar 91 17:59:57 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 24 Last time I talked about this, we put it off to a difference in library versions. Unfortunately, it's happened again. Imagine all the following prefixed by "Mar 25 12:11:20 sadye vmunix:" BAD TRAP pid 3198, `runapp': Data fault kernel read fault at addr=0xf8422fb4, pme=0x0 Bus Error Reg 80 pc=0xf80bb244, sp=0xf8422fb4, psr=0x901ac2, [off the end of the paper] g1-g7: ff1070, f8125000, 901ae3, 0, f8429000, [. . .] Begin traceback... sp = f841cb10 Called from f80bafe4, fp=f8428e98, args=f819f644 [. . .] End traceback... panic: Data fault syncing file systems... BAD TRAP pid 3918, `runapp': Data fault [more of the same, with a longer traceback] Ok, folks... a lot of people depend on this machine, so what can I do to eliminate this problem? Unfortunately, waiting is not an option I have, since the disk space used by the sources will soon be occupied by something else. Will the new SunOS 4.1 support help? If so, where can I get it? -GAWollman
