All of FreeBSD base source code resides in one giant repository. Thus changes made in, say, /base/head, i.e. -CURRENT, affects other branches, say, /base/releng/9.1. It would make more sense if the uname string referred to the Last Changed Rev line. (Yes, I run my own svn mirror. It saves bandwidth when I issue svn log -v to look at the recent commit logs.) BTW, do you nuke the contents of /usr/obj prior to recompiling the system? The command rm -Rf /usr/obj/* should accomplish this rather well.

bsdinstall misaligns partitions
Shouldn't bsdinstall attempt to align partitions on 4k boundaries both for the benefit of 4k drives and flash storage?

I ended up configuring a 63 kB freebsd-boot partition, which ensures that the following partitions are aligned. * The old MBR scheme is even worse. The FreeBSD slice will start at sector 63, guaranteeing that any partitions contained within will be misaligned. There is no way to fix this, unless you shell out and run fdisk manually. * Funnily enough, the ancient BSD dangerously dedicated scheme is the only one that out of the box does not misalign partitions.

Hm. there must be something in Muttrc. I dont see it in my

the regular vim /tmp/foofile.c /tmp/footext is fine. it's only

I'll figure it out eventually if you don't know offhand. or

Re: bsdinstall misaligns partitions
Warren Block: * Funnily enough, the ancient BSD dangerously dedicated scheme is the only one that out of the box does not misalign partitions. The filesystems don't begin at the start of the slice anyway. There is a bsdlabel there. Yes and no. If you look at the bsdlabel(8) output, the size of 'c' is exactly the same as the sum of the sizes of the other partitions, as well as exactly the size of the fdisk slice. There is no additional reserved space for the label. So where does the disklabel hide? FFS1 (FFS2) leaves 8 kB (64 kB) of space at the start of _every_ filesystem. The first 8 kB of the slice--overlapping with the start of 'c' and the start of 'a'--hold boot1, the disklabel, and boot2. If you hexdump /boot/boot2, you'll notice that the first 0x114 bytes are zeroed out; those 276 bytes are exactly where the disklabel is located on disk.

Problem upgrading to 9.1-Release
I have upgraded my development system to 9.1 without any problems. This system maintains kernel source and I build a new kernel with a couple extra options there. The other systems mount /usr/src and /usr/obj from it and do the install. The first one to be upgraded had no problem with make installkernel. Rebooted and ran mergemaster -p just fine. However make installworld dies within a couple seconds with the following error: install -o root -g wheel -m 444 libc_pic.a /usr/lib gencat be_BY.UTF-8.cat /usr/src/lib/libc/nls/be_BY.UTF-8.msg gencat: No such file or directory *** [be_BY.UTF-8.cat] Error code 1 /usr/bin/gencat exists. However, ktrace of the make shows: 3347 make CALL execve(0xbfbfd1c8,0x28c35f14,0x28421180) 3347 make NAMI /usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/sbin/gencat 3347 make RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 3347 make CALL execve(0xbfbfd1c8,0x28c35f14,0x28421180) 3347 make NAMI /usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/bin/gencat 3347 make RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 3347 make CALL execve(0xbfbfd1c8,0x28c35f14,0x28421180) 3347 make NAMI /usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/games/gencat 3347 make RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 3347 make CALL execve(0xbfbfd1c8,0x28c35f14,0x28421180) 3347 make NAMI /usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/sbin/gencat 3347 make RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 3347 make CALL execve(0xbfbfd1c8,0x28c35f14,0x28421180) 3347 make NAMI /usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/bin/gencat 3347 make RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 3347 make CALL execve(0xbfbfd1c8,0x28c35f14,0x28421180) 3347 make NAMI /usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/games/gencat 3347 make RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 3347 make CALL execve(0xbfbfd1c8,0x28c35f14,0x28421180) 3347 make NAMI /tmp/install.CuIzLuBX/gencat 3347 make RET execve -1 errno 2 No such file or directory 3347 make CALL write(0x2,0x28c48c00,0x6) 3347 make GIO fd 2 wrote 6 bytes gencat Obviously its not in any of those places.

Thanks for the followup, and best regards, Joe Heres a work around that should work. For your 9.1-PRERELEASE you can temporary change that so freebsd-update will work for you. Issue this console command on your system. setenv UNAME_r 9.0-RELEASE Now when you run freebsd-update it will think your system is 9.0-RELEASE and go through with the update to 9.1-RELEASE. ___ 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

The command rm -Rf /usr/obj/* should accomplish this rather well. That might have been the issue, yes. Works now. Thanks. doesn't this indicate an error in the make file? Shouldn't sources be compiled when their date is newer then the date of the object file? Or was the last compilation done after the affected file got updated at the server? Shouldn't there be a system in place which automatically deletes all object files automatically? Either a process is automated 100% or not at all is what I would say.

If you try :colorscheme blue you can see that the results have
orange background with dark text (maybe black?), while the editor
background is blue (as the name of the color scheme suggests).
So: can I add something to my ~/.vimrc that =limits=
the search to displaying one term? if I am searching for,
say, the or I guess /\the\, I dont want every the in my
file. I want only one. or one at a time, and not necessarily
in color.
If you have :set hlsearch activated, all (visible) matches will
be highlighted, and the cursor will be placed at the first match.
I don't see an option to highlight the _next_ result only. However,
if you do _not_ set hlsearch, searching and continuing searching
will not highlight anything, instead let the cursor skip to the
next match (tried here with gvim /COPYRIGHT, /this, /, /, / and
so on), with :set nohlsearch for testing.
Hm. there must be something in Muttrc. I dont see it in my
local ~/.muttrc; this something is controlling every /search
term and highlighting it.
That should be the default of :set hls (usually in ~/.vimrc),
as I assume Mutt inlines vim.
the regular vim /tmp/foofile.c /tmp/footext is fine. it's only
in mutt that highlights EVERY instance that I'm searching for.
I'll figure it out eventually if you don't know offhand. or
anybody else.
Search for flags to vim as editor, :set hlsearch or :set hls.
You can add your own :set nohlsearch or :set nohls at the end
of the file to try to deactivate the effect. This should also
work when manually entered during an editor session.
maybe I should just find keith bostic's newvi; see if they have it
for linux; theyve got everything else... {grumble}
I know there's nvi in ports.
Maybe those will be helpful:
