Description Klaus Kämpf 2005-08-30 10:00:21 UTC
Since updating to Beta2, I experience mysterious crashes on one of my test  
systems, like:  
grep[8579]: segfault at 0000000000000000 rip 00002aaaaaaae05c rsp  
00007fffffce7cf0 error 4  
  
Its a TYAN S2880 Thunder K8S (Dual-Opteron)  
  
I now read that a BIOS update might be due. The current BIOS is:  
    Vendor: "American Megatrends Inc."  
    Version: "080008"  
    Date: "10/14/2003"  
 
Stefan, can you help me ?
