hi,
My machine has begun randomly rebooting on panic: page fault.
sometimes it's right after booting and console menu.. reboot..
other times it runs about 30mins or maybe an hour.. reboot..
no warnings, other than blank screen.
Now I have googled abit and was wondering how I configure the dumpon to dump on an extra usb drive i have attached.
I am using a CD bootloader to boot on the first USB and the dump is too large to fit on the already specified drive which ever that might be.
I tried a reset to factory settings..
I tried to replace the NIC card to get wake on lan feature working, however that didnt work and the server would freeze and hang on idle or on file transfers, screen would still show the console menu although not reacting to input. I then put back the old NIC that worked without any problems before and since then I have had the panic attacks. Accidently the power was cut to the server and the next boot was when the first of the auto-reboot (panic) began.. so maybe one of these two specific circumstances had something to do with it.. i dunno..
anyhuw.. im blabbering.. For now to begin somekind of debugging, I would like to know how to I specify where to dump a panic log so it can be reviewed :)
