-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello,
I just had a massive power failure and my raid drive is failing with a: cannot alloc NNN bytes for blockmap cannot alloc NNN bytes for lncntp searching the archives and man pages for both OpenBSD and FreeBSD reveals: fsck_ffs(3) freebsd "Fsck_ffs's request for memory for its virtual memory tables failed. This should never happen. Fsck_ffs terminates on this error condition. See a guru." So here I am. The raid drive is on a hardware raid areca 1220, in the raid bios and volume check shows no errors so I am led to believe the raid is still in tact. Booting OpenBSD 4.3 drops to single user and says to manually run fsck_ffs. Doing so produces no different results, just the above error messages. /etc/fstab (line of interest): /dev/sd0a /pub_raid ffs rw,noexec,softdep 0 2 I can't seem to edit my fstab in single user mode because everything is ro. System has 2GB of real memory and is running bsd.mp GENERIC. I can get a dmesg but it will take me some time to get a serial connected to this machine. Any answers besides reformat would be splended. I am booting into single CPU bsd now to see if that makes a difference. Thanks in advance.
