- I get a disk subsystem hang ld'ing xterm on 386bsd. I've applied
- the new patch kit hoping it would fix things, but doesn't. The system
- continues to run, and if I have things running in the background
- such as "leave" or the window manager they continue to function
- until they have to use the disk.
-
- I'm using Julian's SCSI system on a Micronics 486VL mother board, 16MB
- memory with Adaptec 1542B and two CDC/Seagate roughly 300 MB drives.
-
- I've copied the xterm directory onto my first drive, rebooted single user
- and verified it still hangs, eliminating the case of a funky file system
- and broken code.
-
- The first thing I ask myself is where the processes are sleeping. Is there
- any way to dump the process table from the debugger?
