As a result, tar believes that the body of the tar entry has been skipped when it hasn't. This doesn't occur with tar from 6.1 because the seek optimization was added after that; it doesn't happen with compressed archives because you cannot seek in compressed files. Hmm, so I wonder if this hypothesis can be tested by asking for the position of the tape using mt before and after the seek.. Quick kludge attached..

Server setup as a Diskless Server on reboot sends DHCP Discover packets out
Hey Guys, I have a strange one: I've setup a machine as a diskless server, using PXEBoot with ihc-dhcpd to offer dhcp and dhcp configuration information. I did a test reboot on the server, and found to my dismay that the server NIC's are sending out dhcp discover packets and trying to get an address. The NIC's IP info is captured correctly in /etc/rc.conf: snip ifconfig_bge0=inet 196.30.157.162 media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex netmask 255.255.255.192 ifconfig_bge1=inet 196.31.157.162 media 100baseTX mediaopt full-duplex netmask 255.255.255.0 snip and the /etc/dhclient.conf file is empty. I thought maybe it was the /conf directory used in the diskless Root structure creation, so I renamed it out of the way, but that made no difference. I can't seem to find where the definition is that makes the NIC's ask for DHCP info. Shortened output of /var/run/dmesg.boot pertaining to the DHCP Discover packets: snip Sending DHCP Discover packet from interface bge0 (00:0b:db:e6:a9:33) Sending DHCP Discover packet from interface bge1 (00:0b:db:e6:a9:35) DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255 DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255 DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255 DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255 DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255 Received DHCP Offer packet on bge0 from 196.30.157.161 (accepted) (no root path) Sending DHCP Request packet from interface bge0 (00:0b:db:e6:a9:33) DHCP/BOOTP timeout for server 255.255.255.255 Received DHCP Ack packet on bge0 from 196.30.157.161 (accepted) (got root path) DHCP timeout for interface bge1 bge0 at 196.30.157.149 server 196.30.157.161 server name diskless.csc.jnb6.za.uu.net boot file pxeboot subnet mask 255.255.255.192 router 196.30.157.129 rootfs 196.30.157.161:/diskless_root Adjusted interface bge0 Shutdown interface bge1 Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/aacd0s1a snip 9 times out of ten the DHCP will just sit and timeout (it gets a DHCP return from my other diskless server running DHCPD) and then the 1 time out of 10 will mount the hard drive / partition.

unionfs through whole / with upper layer on remote NFS directory
Hi all, can you advise me if it is real and realizable what I plan ? Here it is, I have installed fbsd-6-stable pc with the last unionfs diff-19 patch and have a recompiled kernel with this new unionfs implementation and I would like this: - /dev/ad0s1a on CF card is read-only permanently - mdconfig is forbiden to create var and tmp ramdisks in rc.conf - to my custom directory for example /unionfs is mounted remote NFS directory with read-write rights and with no_all_squash or no_root_squash and sync options etc. - the upper layer of unionfs should be on this remote NFS directory - the lower layer of unionfs should be the whole mount point / the whole CF card with ro When I tried to start this command, new error message appeared and I do not know what to do with this probably because I do something wrong. The mount_unionfs utility attaches directory above uniondir in such a way that the contents of both directory trees remain visible. By default, directory becomes the upper layer and uniondir becomes the lower layer. So directory is /unionfs and lower layer is the whole / # mount -t unionfs /unionfs / mount_unionfs: /unionfs (/unionfs) and / (/) are not distinct paths the second try: # mount -t unionfs /unionfs /dev/ad0s1a like with cd-rom mount: /dev/ad0s1a: not a directory but with /var it is okay # mount -t unionfs /unionfs /var # mount /dev/ad0s1a on / (ufs, NFS exported, local) devfs on /dev (devfs, local) /dev/ad0s2a on /free (ufs, local, soft-updates) procfs on /proc (procfs, local) above:/unionfs on /var (unionfs, local) NFS:/home/buffer on /unionfs (nfs) It seems that lower layer could not be the whole / or /dev/ad0s1a, doesn´t it ?

Re: ACPI hanging shutdown

I see syslog exit and then nothing. I need to do a hard shutdown with the partitions still mounted for it to turn off. I booted without ACPI and the problem has gone away. Successive updates have not solved this. Anyone know what could be causing this? Thanks. Have you checked and/or tried setting the following two sysctls? I believe the one you might want is hw.acpi.handle_reboot=1. $ sysctl -a | grep 'acpi.*reboot' hw.acpi.disable_on_reboot: 0 hw.acpi.handle_reboot: 0 Setting hw.acpi.handle_reboot=1 and a reboot did the trick. Thanks. Curious what has changed to cause this. tom -- | tmclaugh at sdf.lonestar.org tmclaugh at FreeBSD.org | | FreeBSD http://www.FreeBSD.org | | BSD#http://www.mono-project.com/Mono:FreeBSD | ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
