How to create NanoBSD iso image to install NanoBSD on vmware machine?
Dear Friends, I am new to Nanobsd and trying to create an iso image which can be installed on vmware machine. I created an iso image using the disk image (/usr/obj/nanobsd.full/_.disk.image) generated according to steps given in NanoBSD How To http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/nanobsd/howto.html . VM could boot up with this ISO image, but I got an error as below before I could get OS installation prompt: mount: /dev/ad0s3: No such file or directory mount -o ro /dev/ad0s3 /conf/default/etc failed: droppnig into /bin/sh Cannot read termcap database; using dumb terminal settings. # do I need to use different commands or options to create iso image while using nanobsd.sh script? Please help. Many thanks in advance for your help and time.

Hi Olivier, Hard Disk is configured as IDE (IDE 1:1), vm settings. When freebsd image is booting in this VM, before getting the above error, following logs are displayed on boost console: ada0: VMWare Virtual IDE Hard Driver 0001 ATA-4 device ... ... ada0: Previously was known as ad3 .. Trying to mount root from cd9660:/dev/iso9660/nanoISO [ro]...

After a reboot, I noticed that the disk that disappeared - da0 - was successfully probed and resilvered back in to the existing pool. I ran a short SMART self test and everything was fine. I ran a long SMART self test and the drive disappeared again towards the end of the scan (I didn't get a chance to view the results) I'd like to know if there's a way to suggest to 're-probe' connections to see if there are any devices that can be reconnected. It's clear that the drive is still around and at least partially responsive - is there a way I can online this disk, as just a device in its own right, such that I can finishing running the SMART diagnostics? I've read some old mentions of mps not being the most stable thing under load, but the mentions are over a year old. The initial failure happened right at the time the daily periodic was running (Which includes a check for negative permissions on the zfs partition) and the second failure was during a SMART long test, so I guess there's potential for load there. How might I go about diagnosing whether this is just the drive or possibly the card itself?

Then I added this line, based upon the interfaces in the above list, to resolvconf.conf: interface_order=fxp0:slaac fxp0 That puts the interface configured via rtadv before the interface configured via dchp, resulting in the IPv6 nameserver coming before the IPv4 nameservers in resolv.conf. ___ 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
Re: highest nice(1) -n increment value?

So is 20 the upper increment limit? Thanks Anton Yes, please check the setpriority man page: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=setpriority The prio argument is a value in the range -20 to 20. The default priority is 0; lower priorities cause more favorable scheduling. Hope that helps, Greg - -- Greg Larkin http://www.FreeBSD.org/ - The Power To Serve http://www.sourcehosting.net/ - Ready.

to gmirror or to ZFS
... thats the question :) At any rate, I'm building a rather large 100+TB NAS using ZFS. However for my OS, should I also ZFS or simply gmirror as I've a dedicated pair of 256GB SSD drives for it. I didn't ask for SSD sys drives, this system just came with em. This is more of a best practices q.

This is more of a best practices q. ZFS has data integrity checking, gmirror has low RAM overhead. gmirror is, at present, restricted to MBR partitioning due to metadata conflicts with GPT, so 2TB is the maximum size. Best practices... depends on your use. gmirror for the system leaves more RAM for ZFS. ___ 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
