I've been chasing my tail with a problem for a few days now and I'm  
about to throw in the towel.  I have a Tyan Thunder K8SR w/ 2  
amd64's, 6GB of mem, and a 250 GB SATA drive.

I've been trying to get FreeBSD 6.2 amd64 on it.  When I do the  
install, if I try to put the ports on, it reliably crashes with a  
ufs_dirbad.  I can install w/o the ports.  I found a ref to booting  
with:
set hw.physmem="4G"
and that gets me through (w/ the ports).

When I buildworld, I eventually get the same ufs_dirbad.

I have swapped out the drive and tried a new one (same problem).   
WHenever I reboot (at all) if I fsck I see lots of filesystem  
errors.  I just did a memtest86 over night, and found no problems.

Can anyone help me out here?  I can provide any other info that would  
help.

Thanks,

Eric
