Sorry if this has been posted before, but I couldn't find anything in the forums that matched up with my situation.
I've recently been building several new 8.0 systems on HP Proliant DL365 servers. These have been up to this time on G1 hardware, but a minimal install of operating system on a G5 version of the hardware has introduced some problems. After the bare-bones install, while still in systinstall, I installed 4 packages from the DVD: lang/perl, net/cvsup-without-gui, ports-mgmt/portupgrade and shells/pdksh. I then created a cvs config file "/root/src" to upgrade system and port sources:
and ran:
This step works fine. Changed into directory /usr/src and issued:
This compile runs for a short period of time (5 - 10 minutes) after which the server reboots suddenly. It doesn't appear to die in the same place all the time.
As I said, the same set of steps were taken on an older Proliant DL 365 G1, and it works fine. Both servers have been upgraded to the same firmware level with HP's 8.70 Firmware upgrade disk.
All I can think is that there is a hardware problem due to the difference between the two models:
Full specs can be found here for the g5 http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/13161_na/13161_na.pdf
Full specs can be found here for the g1 http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12564_div/12564_div.html
The O/S runs fine as long as I don't compile the source updates on the G5 platform. Anyone hazard a guess on what might be giving me grief? The hardware looks fine to me, but I may be missing something...
