Hi Folks,

	I'm having a bit of a problem with NetBSd 0.8.  I have it installed
on a Compaq Contura 3/25 with 121 Meg Conner Hard Drive, 8 Meg ram and ISA.
The problem is that whenever I try to execute a connect call I the machine
reboots.  I don't have ethernet hardware and netstat reports that there
is an lo0 device and ping works as well.  

	When running a program that I wrote which does a simple connect
to the discard address in the debugger I get this information just before
the reboot.  It says that it crashed in vm_fault becasue of a trap 12.

	Any ideas on this?

Later,
George
