Right, so I've got my 6.0-RELEASE up and running, and I'm slowly, but
surely getting it configured how I like it. 80x50 console, all my

However, just recently, when browsing the web, the kernel panicked on
me. I was currently just browsing the web in Opera, doing a
portsmanager -u in the my second console, with centericq running in 7
and irssi in 8. Since I was in X at the time, I had no idea what it
was doing until it rebooted itself. When I rebooted, I found out that
it had made a few files in my /var/crash/ directory, how thoughtful.
The shorter of the two files read like the following:
Dump header from device /dev/ad1s2b
Architecture: i386
Architecture Version: 2
Dump Length: 1072234496B (1022 MB)
Blocksize: 512
Dumptime: Sat Mar 4 07:27:20 2006
Hostname: alexmax.localdomain
Magic: FreeBSD Kernel Dump
Version String: FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE #0: Thu Nov 3 09:36:13 UTC 2005
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC
Panic String: vm_page_insert: page already inserted
Dump Parity: 3300035405
Bounds: 0
Dump Status: good
The other one was quite large, so I will not bore you with the details
unless you need them. However, from there, I have no clue what to do
with the dumps.. I now ask where should I start looking for
problems...or perhaps what information should I give you?
Take a look at the FAQ entry titled "How can I make the most of the
data I see when my kernel panics?"

I took a look at the FAQ. Where can I find the instruction pointer? I
could not actually see the actual dump, as it happened while I was in X,
and all I'm left with is the contents of /var/crash/
