freebsd-update 7.0-7.4 problem: rmdir Directory not empty
I'm going through the freebsd-update process to move from 7.0 to 7.4. I followed the handbook, rebooted to GENERIC and followed up with `freebsd-update install` and got the following output: # freebsd-update install Installing updates...rmdir: ///usr/share/man/ja: Directory not empty rmdir: ///usr/share/man/en.ISO8859-1/cat8: Directory not empty rmdir: ///usr/share/man/en.ISO8859-1/cat4: Directory not empty rmdir: ///usr/share/man/cat8: Directory not empty rmdir: ///usr/share/man/cat4: Directory not empty done.

Re: Dell R210 no disks found

If so, you will need the mps(4) driver which is only available in FreeBSD 8-STABLE built sometime after the 8.2 release. You can find ISO snapshots of 8-STABLE builds here http://pub.allbsd.org/FreeBSD-snapshots/. Search the list archives for PERC H200 for more information. I made a DVD from the ISO and then it booted. I had to destroy the RAID array, unfortunately. It looks 8-STABLE can see the disks as /dev/da0 and /dev/da1, but it can't see the array. My next issue is this: I can use the DVD to install 8.2-RELEASE, but not 8-STABLE. However, 8.2-RELEASE can't boot, sinc eit doesn't have the driver for the HDs. Am I missing something?

Hardware sensors on FreeBSD
I was wondering if anyone knew of better software for FreeBSD for monitoring hardware sensors like CPU temp and fan speeds. I'm using an athlon II x4 and the amdtemp driver seems like it's 20C below what it really is but does change. I've tried using mbmon and it detects the it87 chip but it never updates. It's as if whatever temps it finds at boot are what it'll always show, and the fan speed listed is a quarter of what it really is. I tried stress linux to test lmsensors to make sure it wasn't a motherboard issue and lmsensors works relatively fine. The voltages are junk but temperature seems accurate and varies with the load. I've yet to see any update about the openbsd sensors framework, and I imagine the patch is so old it won't apply cleanly. Is there a better method to monitor system health under FreeBSD or am I stuck with decade old software and a kernel driver that's off by 20C? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
failure to create zfs storage pool
Hello, After getting a couple of Hitachi 1T 7200 rpm drives, it seemed like time for ZFS on FreeBSD82, having not had Z file system subsequent to retiring whatever OpenSolaris was around. Basically, I followed this article: /doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/remote-install/installation.html Previous to this, I had been using sysinstall. dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad4 count=2 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad6 count=2 fdisk -BI ad4 fdisk -BI ad6 bsdlabel -wB /dev/ad4s1 bsdlabel -wB /dev/ad6s1 - bsdlabel -e /dev/ad4s1 a: 1G16 4.2BSD 102481920 b: 5G* swap c: blah,blah d: 20G * 4.2BSD 204816384 0 e: 20G * 4.2BSD 204816384 0 f: * * unused 0 0 - bsdlabel /dev/ad4s1 /tmp/bsdlabel.txt bsdlabel -R \ /dev/ad6s1 /tmp/bsdlabel.txt Now it was way past midnight, I cannot recall but might have run this: gmirror label -nb round-robin gm0 ad4s1 ad6s1 I ran these: gmirror label root ad4s1a ad6s1a gmirror label var ad4s1d ad6s1d gmirror label usr ad4s1e ad6s1e gmirror label -F swap ad4s1b ad6s1b gmirror load newfs -b 8192 -f 1024 /dev/mirror/root newfs /dev/mirror/var newfs /dev/mirror/usr mount /dev/mirror/root /mnt mkdir /mnt/var /mnt/usr mount /dev/mirror/var /mnt/var mount /dev/mirror/usr /mnt/usr So I got the files with 'ftp passive' and followed the article all to the 'reboot' command. Seemed okay. Now at the next page of the article: /doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/remote-install/zfs.html Having read several articles and the zpool manual page, I still have failed to create any kind of ZFS storage pool.

Re: Strange system lockups - kernel saying disk error

Everything was running fine until round about 2 days ago when the system started locking up on me? ... is there anyway to fix the kernel error quickly? Did you apply any updates shortly before it started to fail? If not, this is likely to be a hardware problem. I'd suggest checking the power supply and the fans, running memtest86, and taking a close look at the electrolytic filter capacitors on the system board -- the last because it sounds as if this system may be about the right age to have been built with some bad ones. (If any of the capacitors are bulging, either those caps, or the entire board, need to be replaced.) Power and heat problems can cause all sorts of strange symptoms. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
Installing a root certificate in openssl
I am attempting to get TLS with Postfix working and I have run into a problem and nothing I have tried seems to resolve the problem. When a TLS connection is started, I see the following in /var/log/maillog Jun 3 17:38:13 mo-bak-s1 postfix/smtp[41281]: certificate verification failed for abc.org.s9a1.def.com[WW.XX.YY.ZZ]:25: untrusted issuer /C=US/O=Equifax/OU=Equifax Secure Certificate Authority I have downloaded the Equifax Secure Certificate Authority.cer, converted it to PEM format. Then, I added the certificate to my certfile and restarted Postfix. I had the same result. My guess is that I am doing something wrong importing the Equifax certificate. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Have a nice weekend. Thanks for your help.
