It does some kind of memory test on bootup. I recall seeing something about high memory. And shows all of the 3GB installed I just now saw last time it came down, that the cpu was at 134 degrees. And that would of been after it cooled a couple minutes. I don't think that is astronomical but it may have been a good bit higher under load. But still wouldn't something show in /var/adm/messages if that were the problem? Are there not a list of standard things to grep for in logs that would indicate various troubles? Surely system admins would have somekind of reporting tool to get ahead of serious troubles. I've had one or another problem with this machine for a couple of months now so thinking of scrapping it out, and putting a new setup in that roomy midtower. Where can I find a guide to help me understand how to build up a machine and then plug my existing discs and data into the new OS? I don't mean the hardware part but that part particularly opensolaris and zfs related. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
