Hello, All seems perfect with this machine, however, it is hanging sometimes as quickly as 1 day, and sometimes 1 week. Nothing written to syslog. Dual Intel 2.8Ghz / Adaptec SCSI Zero Channel RAID 2010S SuperMicro - SuperServer 6024H-8R Motherboard - Super X6DH8-G Pheonix Server BIOS 3 Release 6.1 Adaptec Bios v001.62 i2o block driver I've tried default kernel from install. And compiled a 15.0, 15.8, and 15.10 kernel myself. All have same problem. I've tried desperately for crash dump functions. - lkcd: no patches for 2.6.13 kernels - kdump: patch for mkinitrd no good for automatic dump capture - mdump: no patches for suse kernels
From what I read I thought Suse was supposed to have lkcd already built into the source, but when I go to configure the kernel via 'make menuconfig' I don't see an option.
Please help I'm at a loss to figure out how to stabilize this machine if I cannot capture a dump of these crashes. Brandon

*Definitely* an off-the-wall suggestion, but I had a similar problem w/ 32-bit SuSE 9.2 on a P4. Random crashes, *no* syslog messages. I replaced my PSU with a stronger one (from 350 W no-name to 500 W Coolmax) on the advice of a buddy & have had no such problems since. Crashes were usually occuring during prolonged/heavy-ish HDD & network usage, which was a clue for him. Old PSU was giving *no* overt indications of problems, BTW :-). $0.02, no more, no less .... -- William A.

Any ideas on some things to disable that might be causing that I don't need. For instance, could I disable all the power management functions via powersaved? It's a server so I don't think I need any type of power management functions running. Anything else I could try disabling? One thing I noticed is that it seems to be always trying to mount my cdrom and accessign the floppy device at the end of the boot sequence, I don't know why. I commented out the two entries in /etc/fstab and still doing it. I must say I hate all these sysconfig start up BS. Gimme a typical BDS or System V startup and I'd be happy.
