Hello,
I Hvae an IBM Thinkpad X30 with a miniPCI wireless card:
wi0: Intersil Prism2.5 mem 0xf800-0xf8000fff irq 11 at device 2.0 on pci1
wi0: using RF:PRISM2.5 MAC:ISL3874A(Mini-PCI)
wi0: Intersil Firmware: Primary (1.1.0), Station (1.4.9)
wi0: Ethernet address: 00:05:3c:09:7e:9d
wi0: 11b
I have a box running 6.0-STABLE as of 10 Nov last year.
Previously I had created device nodes for /dev/random within chroot
environments (this was for building and testing openssl). However now they
don't work. I am left with the strange situation that device nodes from
devfs work, but seemingly
I am trying to prepare an MS-DOS disk image file (for later dd to a USB
device) but am having difficulties getting newfs_msdos to work in this way.
This is under 5.4-RELEASE.
Firstly, newfs_msdos seems to insist on a block-special device; it won't
talk to a disk file. OK, no problem, I'll fake it

Ah, got it:

So I'm guessing the
Fresh install of FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE from CD.
With the GENERIC kernel, I was able to 'kldload pf' to get the pf firewall.
However this doesn't work after I rebuilt a new kernel; it fails to load.
All I did was add IPSEC and disable IPv6. The exact config diff from GENERIC
is attached below.

Right. I don't understand how B follows A here.
These patches come from where? Security

userconfig_script_load=YES
from /boot/kernel.conf:

That works, many thanks!
(I haven't used FreeBSD 4 for a while, but the place I'm currently working
hasn't yet decided to move to 5 or 6...)

I would like to arrange that the ATA keyboard works even if the machine is
booted without a keyboard, but one is subsequently plugged in. My
understanding is that the default behaviour of probing for the keyboard is
set here in the kernel configuration:
set in /boot/device.hints
hint.atkbd.0.flags=0x0
I tried that, and it didn't work. Well actually I put the setting
in /boot/loader.conf rather than /boot/device.hints, but AFAICT they are the
same:
$ cd /usr/src/sys/boot
$ find . -type f | xargs grep device.hints

I've tested it again, giving exactly your suggestion in exactly that file, and
it doesn't work.
However, on another machine, where I set the flags to 0x0
?

Brian Candler.
