>Description:
I have installed netbsd-current on hpcarm (jornada 720). It works fine with an old CF card (256M). When I try to use a Kingston CF 2GB Elite Pro card it works ok for a moment, and then the system freezes. There is no debug info, no errors in log files. The system is frozen dead.
It happens as well on 3.0 release. I have tried three different cards. Problems only occur when using the 2gb kingston (i have tried 2 of them). The cards are fine and work well in jornada 690(netbsd-hpcsh).
THe system works for max. 5 minutes. After a reboot the system hangs on fsck and i have to fsck the card in another system.
What might be the problem and how to solve it ?
Thank you for your help :)
>How-To-Repeat:
The simplest way is to try to pkg_add perl... or mc (or any other package bigger than 500kb) or to try to ssh to jornada. SOmetimes the system freezes after ps -aux or ls -l .
