1.5 has died on me at the login prompt. Since I've enabled the echo server,
I was able to ping the machine.
When I tried to telnet in from another machine, I got this:
Trying 209.185.76.39...
Connected to bsd.Culver.Net.
Escape character is '^]'.
Then it just hung forever.
Then, I tried FTP to see if I could snag some log files:
Trying 209.185.76.39.21...
Connected to bsd.Culver.Net.
Then hangs.
Finally, I go out into the machine room and at the console hit RETURN a
few times, and sure enough the login: prompt is printed each time. I then
type "root" at the prompt, hit return, and then it -also- hangs.
So I hit the RESET switch and I'm waiting for it to fsck the 45G disk.
Has anybody else seen this? Or have any ideas? Quick system rundown:
VIA VA-503+ K6-2-400 256MB ECC Promise Ultra100 running UDMA66, GENERIC 1.5
kernel.
Thanks! -Mike
