Re: ... sometimes system hang up

Hi Stephan,

I have the same problem on Ultra 10 (Suse 7.3). The problem looks like
heavy network IO.I'm using sun happy meal ethernet card. I reduced
network traffic on server and it never crashed again. 

Also kernel on Suse 7.3 (2.4.14) looks buggy. regularly I have following
error:

kernel: __alloc_pages: 1-order allocation failed (gfp=0x20/0)

Now, I have some plans to test Debian Sparc 3.0 (kernel 2.4.18) on a Sun
E220 machine.Beacuse I was waiting a new Suse release like 8.x or
something but it is never published. it's been a very very long time
that they released 7.3 and looks like it will take a long long time to
see a new Suse sparc version.


BTW, do you have a nfs mount on your linux box.
