Re: make installkernel NDIS disaster
2009/4/1 Kayven Riese kay...@gmail.com
I was trying to get my DVD burner working on FreeBSD 7.0 and I followed
some advice about
installing a kernel and for some reason I got some NDIS errors. I don't
know why NDIS reared its
apparently ugly head, but it caused a terrible error. I was able to
make buildkernel .. well.. actually
I guess I wasn't. I think the attached file, makesplat.log which is a
typescript of the make buildkernel
command and should have at least one pwd in it, should show what happened.
I booted up and strange antimultitasking things happened. One application
at a time commandiered the
window manager or something. I lost the Gnome Applications Places System
window and it got
replaced with whatever app's menu system was File .. I tried make
installkernel which I guess was
stupid because the other make failed. makeinstallkernel.log is a
typescript similar to makesplat.log
but of a make installkernel KERNCONF=KAYVE_KERN (my kernel file)
Hence, I popped in my old clunky hard disk with 60 GB but reliably runs
FreeBSD. Here is a bunch
of pictures of that operation in case it is not completely clear:
http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/swap/index.vhtml
I am running this disk now so I can mount the othere data. This 60 GB disk
runs

I had been trying to follow these directions:
gheist http://www.experts-exchange.com/M_1079061.html:
You have to install SCSI over ATAPI driver. GENERIC kernel does not have
one. Only burncd in base system can use acd driver for burning CD/DVD,
others do use SCSI cd driver
Create a file with following content in /usr/src/sys/i386/conf:
include GENERIC
ident KAYVEY
nocpu I486_CPU
nocpu I586_CPU
options SMP
device atapicam
nodevice acd
--
Then run config NEW_FILE
Go into kernel build directory run
make cleandepend ; make depend ; make make install
The new kernel will let you use cd0 device.
acd0 is gone for good - update /etc/fstab accordingly.
Here is a bit of makesplat for that failure (I think this is the end of
makesplat.log)

Oh jeez. I was trying to get the kernel config file I made.. but I am not
sure what is happening now

I mounted the disk that I want to boot on on /mnt/nexstar actually that

portsman and portmanager are some other frontend tools that can help

I tried portinstall, although dependecies are install with port sources
still.
It take me a whole afternoon to portinstall math/py-neworkx, and it
still doesn't complete as yet.

fsdb yields GEN=ffffffffb5f6de87
I was running a java make job and did a du last week and suddenly brought my frankenstein ASUS M6800N Notebook to a frozen mouse state. That was running from a FreeBSD 7.0 on a 160GB HD. I was looking at this question: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2003-December/016043.html and I have been given the same advice that I am just not ready to acquiesce to (I know I am not much of a sysadmin until I do, though), i.e. retrieve data and reinstall the operating system. I have results of fsdb of my own: http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/inodes/pa180020.vhtml but I don't have quite the same absurdity, i.e. a file that has more bits than atoms in the universe (well.. that's a BIT of an exaggeration) I am thinking, though that the fact that GEN=b5f6de87 might be an absurd value. Is that the case? I found multiple inodes with this configuration. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I was running my FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE (160GB HD) on this laptop: http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/dmesg/PB12001901.vhtml Right now I am swapped out http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/torrent/p5120212.vhtml but I have the problem disk mounted using this: http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/torrent/p5120226.vhtml This is a much older disk with 60GB and $ uname -a FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE #0: Fri Jan 12 11:05:30 UTC 2007 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SMP i386 $ It makes clunking sounds sometimes, but for the most part it seems to run fine. Some diagnostics on the 160GB HD FB 7.0 that have been done: # mount /dev/da0s4 /mnt/usr # fsck_ufs -y /mnt/usr ** /dev/da0s4 (NO WRITE) ** Last Mounted on /mnt/usr ** Phase 1 - Check Blocks and Sizes INCORRECT BLOCK COUNT I=2779162 (4 should be 0) CORRECT? no fsck_ufs: cannot alloc 871186332 bytes for inoinfo # I have been told that doing fsck while mounted is a very bad thing, but I did fsck before the above depicted instantiation of the fsck command and after this and it always did the same thing. I have done fsck using the argument /dev/da0s4, I have done fsck in single user mode (the 160GB hard boots a character based shell, but crashes and reboots during startx) and always the fsck looks the same. My configuration of the 160GB is a little goofy, in my estimation, just to explain. I currently have three hard drives representing all the times I have installed FreeBSD, two of them are dual booted with MS Vista, and this latest one with 160GB has FreeBSD all to itself, but when I was creating it, I mistook partitions for slices so I configured 4 partitions, leaving some of the disk unallocated thinking that would be good for that 10% utilization thing. I mount three partitions on /, /var, and /usr; respectively and the last one as swap. I learned the vi editor in 1985 and tend to recount the flavor of unix as evax but at this point I wonder if this evax concept is mistaken. I have done a bunch of c programming in university courses, but also spent some time doing molecular biology but they had me on a SUN SPARCstation I guess. Didn't mess with that source code. Anyway. Sorry for not being concise. I thought maybe my background might be useful information. I was told to do another diagnostic, alleged to pin the disk down as having no bad sectors: # dd if=/dev/da0 bs=65536 of=/dev/null 2442045+1 records in 2442045+1 records out 160041885696 bytes transferred in 5718.122211 secs (27988539 bytes/sec) # echo $? 0 # I was told that the fact that it returns 0 was good.

cvsup RELENG_6_3 to RELENG_7 impaired gnome
I am feeling nuked from the freeBSD community right now and I was trying to appropriately post to the gnome list but oh well. I don't have time for the continued bugs in my system, I have _GOT_ to get this running pronto. The subscription to the gnome list seems to be hanging or lagging and my paranoia meter says that some people are doing this because crimeny the gnome list should have sent me at least 50 emails by now. Anyway. To my stupid question that is probably too stupid for hackers, but I am not subscribed to questions either I just can't tolerate that in my time frames It is hard enough letting the other lists go by. Oh. I should have tried to subscribe to that but I am under the.. GGGH fine. If I don't get that subscription notice by the time I finish this then I'm sending it. I suspect the composition should take a reasonable amount of time for that to happen. I did cvsup with the standard-supfile but I guess I used the one from freeBSD 6.2 and I thought it would be kosher to change the bit that said RELENG_6_2 to RELENG_7 so that's what I did. I used the ftp4.freebsd.org mirror and I did a cvsup. Then I did cvsup with the ports-supfile but that one had cvsup4.freebsd.org in it, so after that I was OMG and I changed the ftp4.freebsd.org in the standard-supfile and redid that cvsup. Anyway. THen I started following instructions in /usr/src/Makefile. My current professor runs FreeBSD and he suggested that method. It looks pretty similar to stuff I have seen elsewhwere, plus it was part of what cvsup slurped up that was supposed to be specific to my version, right? Anyway, here are the steps: IMPROVISATION: I did mergemaster -p here oops. (see below) make buildworld / make buildkernel make kernel -| substituted for- make installkernel reboot -s .. okay. This is where I guess I am basic? I don't think I used the loader prompt, I didn't use reboot -s hmm.. that probably would have been a good thing to type after # I guess I am really stupid. I did shutdown -r now and when the devil came up I pressed 4 Then I typed mount -a and then.. mergemaster -p and that is a ball of wax depicted here: http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/inst_world/index.vhtml The same thing happened the first time I did mergemaster -p tells my spidey sense oh oh. Anyway. Then I did make installworld and had a bad thing something about make doesn't get it but I fixed that by googling it. Oh here it is: http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/inst_world/p5240176.vhtml anyway, don't worry too much about that I fixed it by doing: /usr/src/usr.sbin/mergemaster/mergemaster.sh -p and had the same trials and tribulation of hitting 1000 space bars at the right time with intercelated 1000 return keys (actually maybe more like 300 space bars and 200 return keys) and then, saints be praised, make installworld did some presumably nice things so then I did: make delete-old like /usr/src/Makefile said and OMFG I had to hit y 200 times now. mergemaster -U 300 more space bars 200 more return keys make delete-old-libs and now I have provided some pictures of what happens when I try to start up. I get to the devil and then it looks like http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/fb7/p5250001.vhtml http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/fb7/p5250002.vhtml http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/fb7/p5250004.vhtml http://www.monkeyview.net/id/965/fsck/fb7/p5250005.vhtml I broke my gnome and my nessus which is the thing I absolute need pronto! I am not trying to be demanding I am just informing everybody that I am under pressure here and I have no idea what to google at this point. *--* Kayven Riese, BSCS, MS (Physiology and Biophysics) (415) 902 5513 cellular http://kayve.net Webmaster http://ChessYoga.org *--* ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Close to implausible, perhaps? That would indeed be the case, unless you truly are longing for a major workout, either with mergemaster et al, or both with mergemaster and the ports. The former case, which assumes you don't have many ports installed, is often a no-brainer: install a fresh system. The latter case may be somewhat more complicated: install a fresh system for the least effort on your side, or go the update route if you need to keep your system up and usable during the process. I didn't really understand that and I don't understand why I am a bad person for spamming my idiotic thoughts on the matter, but in any case this is moot because I am up an runing RELENG_6_3 and making kernel after editing the stable-supfiles RELENG_6_3 to RELENG_7 let's all cross our fingers that communication has just happened. I should note that I always took the update trail, and never regretted it afterwards (well, if only so slightly). For instance, my workstation lived through 5.2.1-R, 6.2-R, RELENG_6, and finally RELENG_7, all with the aid of cvsup. The process is straightforward, well-designed and easily executed (thanks to the developers), but problems often pop-up with ports (especially such messy ones as Gnome, etc) which take lots of time to correct. I am feeling better about cvsup and even mergemaster nowadays. Thank you very much for your support. So, in summary, a sane person should probably go with clean system update. Is that what I am doing? Umm.. maybe not. I have all these errors that I don't understand and that people ignore but I have a browser and a terminal, so I feel like a functioning pile of carbon compounds. P.S.: whoever replies next, it's safe to drop hackers@ from CC: anytime now Nah.. hackers needs the publicity!

I find I don't have to unsubscribe to hackers, and it doesn't seem as hard core to misinterpret what hackers are, than say ports or acpi Well, hackers usually means developers, i.e. people hacking on the FreeBSD code. Therefore I'm afraid I have to agree with Tom: Your questions should better go to the questions list. ergo: because obviously I am a flumming idiot. I thought hacker was something you took eucalyptus fro. I realized that make delete-old and make delete-old-libs are both part of the cannonical, I guess because I am going RELENG_6_3 to RELENG_7 I always use make delete-old, as instructed in the /usr/src/UPDATING file, and it has never bitten me. Please have a look at that file; the important part starts at the section titled To rebuild everything. Actually, after composing this I kicked myself, because /usr/src/Makefile has clearly instructed me to do make delete-old after make installworld and I think I will throw caution to the wind and append -U to my subsequent mergemaster followed by make delete-old-libs On that note, was I given misinformation when I was advised that it would be impossible to upgrade RELENG_6_2 directly to RELENG_7 ? Nothing is impossible!, as Dr. Farnsworth from the Futurama series used to say. :-) Oh well. Water under the bridge. I expect to someday edit this to RELENG_7_1 or the like when freebsd.org says so and following the instructions in /usr/src/Makefile again. But seriously ... I think going from 6.2 to 7.0 should work fine. However, the official notion is that updates across major versions have to be supported only for the latest stable release. Any other configurations might work, but it's not guaranteed. If it fails, you're not expected to complain or ask for help, but instead try the officially supported way (i.e. first update to the latest stable on your existing branch, then update across the major version boundary). If that still fails, you may complain and ask for help. Interesting. No. Fascinitating. Captian Kirk, I believe this star will supernova in approximately 12 days, 13 hours, 34 minutes and 23.3425 seconds. Note that it is IMPORTANT to rebuild *all* of your ports when you update from 6.x to 7.x. (This holds true for any major version update.) If you don't do this, you will get library dependency collisions, i.e. port A uses libc.so.7 and depends on port B, but port B still links against the older libc.so.6. Things will break sooner or later. That's why you should rebuild *all* ports after updating to 7.x. (You can keep older ports only if you are absolutely sure that they are not part of any dependencies, and never will be.) My habit is to run cvsup standard-supfile followed by cvsup ports-supfile. IS that a dumb thing to do? In your previous mail you mentioned: Things work, but dmesg has errors, Would you please tell us what those errors are? We might be able to help you, but only if you tell us. I told the ACPI folks and they told me nicely that my appropriate post was too much of a hassle to bother with. Some ding dong was attaching after the fact of the wing ding and the fact that the errors occured between the wing and the ding was irrelevant since the dong ding subsequent to the ding ding recalibrated the whosits in an adequate fashion before reaching single user mode. and many ports fail and their makes Again: Please post messages and everything relevant to the problems.

I see so when i use the netstat command Yes. You need a default router specified because that is the address that becomes your gateway to the rest of the network.

You have to put it in /etc/rc.conf so it will be taken care of during network initialization each time you boot. Everything at startup reads the /etc/rc.conf and finds variables it needs to do its startup and network startup does that too. So, you put in a line like: ifconfig_em0=inet 1.1.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 and defaultrouter=1.1.1.3 Amongst a number of other startup settings in /etc/rc.conf network startup sees those and says 'oh, I know what to do with those' and runs the ifconfig, etc. Note that putting it in rc.cong only causes a 'ifconfig_em0' variable to be set toinet 1.1.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 and the 'defaultrouter' variable to be set to 1.1.1.3 It is up to the startup programs to do something about it. The startup programs are generally run from the /etc/rc script and from other scripts that it runs. jerry On Wed, Jan 30, 2008 at 12:14 PM, Ashish [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: ,--[ On Wednesday 30 Jan 2008, Bhuvaneswari Ramkumar wrote: | I did have an IP address assigned to my ethernet interface( using the | ifconfig command) but I'm unable to ping anybody in my LAN.

mozilla cache partition mishap ?
Having followed some possibily outdated directive..
i have set up my filesystem in such a way that i am wondering
if it is impairing performance,
kv_bsd# df -m
Filesystem 1M-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/ad0s2a 248 1369260%/
devfs 00 0 100%/dev

/dev/ad0s2d 496 115 34125%/var
linprocfs 00 0 100%/usr/compat/linux/proc
i have been too lazy to use useradd so i just keep running as root.
i did mkdir /home at some point but then i kept overflowing /
i installed the GIMP graphics program and it crashed, but then
i realized that it was using a directory under the /root
directory (because /root is ${HOME}) I found a bit in GIMP
where i was able to change pertinent directories, so I have
been manually creating stuff like /usr/home
kv_bsd# ls /usr
.Trash-root bin include link to homesbin
.gimp-2.2 compat lib local share
.snap games libdata obj src
X11R6 homelibexec ports
kv_bsd#
and the above .gimp-2.2 directory needed to make sure that GIMP
didn't crash. now i have been encountering something somebody
warned me about running firefox with flash plugins.. it is crashing
sometimes.. well.. he warned me i don't know if i expect a complete
fix to that, but right now i am noticing
kv_bsd# du .mozilla/ | sort -n
. . .
4920.mozilla/firefox/4dopg5yz.default/Cache
7346.mozilla/firefox/4dopg5yz.default
7358.mozilla/firefox
7368.mozilla/
now i am thinking.. well..
there are a whole bunch of things in /root .files, er.. .directories
is it possible for me to switch these to /usr so i don't over flow?
kv_bsd# ls /root
.ICEauthority .gnome_private .realplayerrc
.Trash .gstreamer-0.10 .recently-used
.Xauthority .gstreamer-0.8 .recently-used.xbel

.gimp-2.2 .metacity q

would that be a good idea?
