What would help? Takes a little while as I have to rebuild to 11-RELEASE

after which could be unrelated - I have photos but they are quite big

4 MB
You can't mail them as attachment, but you might put them on Dropbox or
something else and link to them.
I suggest -
1) Single disk ZFS pool on the 320GB disks should allow for faster
dd wipes if needed
2) Run 11-RELEASE initially in case the 12-CURRENT issues are
unrelated
I send
Dmesg output
Gpart show
Gpart list
Zpool status
Camcontrol devlist
Anything else?
That is a really good start for people to look further on.
Did you update your boot blocks while updating?

Ronald.

Hi all
Last week I decided to upgrade my FreeBSD installation - it's been a
while (September 16 was last time). Unfortunately CURRENT does not
boot and cash in a weird way. Both 11-RELEASE and 12 CURRENT boot
loader seems to attempt to read blocks that exceeds the physical disk.
Initially I through it was a hard disk error - but after a "oh"
experience I realised that the
"gptzfsboot: error 4 lba 921592" is actually beyond the physical
boundaries of the disk (300GB disk). In order to rule out different
options - I installed a vanilla 11-RELEASE on the 300G with a simple
stripe - it also gives the error but does boot - the LBA of the error
is slightly different on 11 CURRENT and comes up with LBA 921600
I have scanned all the disks for physical faults and there seems to be
none and I have tried doing a single disk installation on each disk -
they give the same error - Does anybody have any idea? Included Photos
as sometimes it get through to the actual boot menu but then crash in
another place
I have some images - but they are 2 bit for the mailing list ;-)
Can it be related to this issue?
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=144234
Would be nice if you tell more about the system. CPU? dmesg?
The 11-RELEASE did that boot from the same disk? In the mentioned issue
there is the case that gptzfsboot does recognize a secondary disk (can be
configured as mirror), but not the first.
As you say UFS works, the bug might be in the gptzfsboot code, because
that
is not used for UFS.
Regards,
Ronald.
