Hi,
I compiled kernel with all debug stuff in it, but I'm not sure what to
do next :)
I have serial console to the server so I boot with -dDh and enter debig
mode.
I can enter at debug mode at any time now, so any idea how to catch what
trigger this rtfree ? :)
I'm following steps from
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/developers-handbook/kerneldebug-online-ddb.html
What info should I provide?
