My system is a Compaq Armada 7300 with an 150MHz Pentium MMX, 128MB Kingston minisd-edo-ram, 40GB Fujitsu HDD connected to the internal Triflex controller.
>How-To-Repeat:
Everytime, using the FBSD5.3b2 image got at 29th August from ftp1.de.freebsd.org. Also then enter "reset" in the debugers command line and booting FBSD5.2.1-CURRENT kernel. But never happend when doing a cold-reset (Switching off and on or eg.)
