All tests passed. Someone mentioned building a kernal with the debugger. I'm not sure if this would help since the system never panics - it just reboots. Sometimes the boot process thinks there's a dump in swap and sometimes not. Maybe analyzing it with crash would provide some useful info? Unfortunately, the hardware is back at my integrator's where they are busily testing motherboards. -- Leo leo@aai.com leo%aai@uunet.uu.net ...uunet!aai!leo
