I ran across this in the archives for setting up softupdates on root

"The method I use to setup the softdep of / is
1. boot -s

4. reboot"
This is the old way of enabling softupdates, a non-dynamic way of
enabling it.
It was changed now to be able do with an option of mount.
man tunefs lists an -n option but it appears to be related to average
number of files per directory.
Anyway, I'm having some random crashes during "tar -xvzpf"s with
softupdates enabled and was just looking around to see if anybody had
similar problems or trying to figure out if I have a hardware
problem. No ddb info at the moment. This is with i386 3.2-stable,

I do not think any one can help you if you do not have the ddb info
available.
