which controllers(devices) to disable in kernel?
Hi, I bought a new pc with GIGABYTE GA-K8VT800 VIA K8T800 mother board (has ata, sata, raid) and a SATA IBM HDD and installed FreeBSD 6.0. I'm building a custom kernel and I was wondering which controllers(devices) I need for my new kernel to support my motherboard properly?

dual boot two disk
Hi I have a problem booting the second disk with fbsd's boot manager. I installed a new disk as pri/master (ad0) and moved my old disk to sec/master (ad2). Then devided ad0 (40GB) with fbsd's fdisk in 10G (ufs) and 30G (fat) and installed FreeBSD 5.3 with a boot manager on the first 10G. When I boot the system I get: F1 FreeBSD (the fbsd on ad0s1) F2 DOS (the 30G fat, ad0s2) F5 Other (again the fbsd) So there is no option to boot from the second disk!? Allso when I unlplug ad0 or change the BIOS to boot from ad2 (hd1 as he sees it), WinXP boots just fine, meaning, there is no problem with the mbr on ad2. I read the man for boot0cfg, but I can't make heads or tails of ti!!! how do I configure/install the boo0 to show the second disk ni the boot menu? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I am not exactly clear from your description, but... I would expect that when you hit F5, you would be presented with a new menu that included the ad2 disk.Maybe that disk does not really have an MBR, but only a boot block (the second part of the disk boot process [or third if you count BIOS]). I believe each disk that has bootable slices (which have boot blocks/sectors) also needs to have an MBR for it to work right. If you are brave, try using fdisk to write the MBR to ad2 as well. I don't think that would mess up anything and might be what is missing. Something like: fdisk -BI -b /boot/boot0 ad2 I don't know if FreeBSD 5.3 still keeps its MBR in /boot/boot0. You may have to check that. jerry That's what I thought. F5 should move on to the next disk, or more precise the next disk's mbr. But it does not. Anyways, the second disk has a MBR on it. As I said, when I unplug the fist dis and boot the box with the old disk (second disk) only, I get a normal boot menu from Widows XP (which has it's own boot loader = WinXP and Win2k Pro). So the problem is not that the second disk has bad or no MBR, rather that FreeBSD's boot manager boot0 doesn't give me a chance to boot from the second disk. I thought about overwriting the mbr on the second disk (ad2), but I don't feel very brave :P I think that will most defenetly remove WinXP boot manager and probably remove some partitioning info, thus I'll loose the data. And since I'm not familiar with WinXP boot process, and don't know if FreeBSD's boot manager will pick up where WinXP/MBR left off, I rather not do that without any assurance. I read the man for boot0cfg, but I can't make heads or tails of ti!!! how do I configure/install the boo0 to show the second disk ni the boot menu? I generally use fdisk and not boot0cfg, but I think it is basically the same for what you are trying to do here. Something like: boot0cfg -B -b /boot/boot0 -o packet ad2 You might want to add -f some_file_name if you want it to save whatever was in the sector0 before the command. You can put it back if you need. You may also need -m 0x1 or -m 0x3 or -m 0x7 or -m 0xf depending on if you have 1, 2, 3 or 4 slices actively bootable. I think it is supposed to figure it out, but if it doesn't, then try those. You migh also want to include the -v flag to make it print out more stuff when it runs. You might also want to do the exactly the same or the same fdisk to ad0 as well. I got that part :P What I didn't understand is how the hell I'm I suppose to let him know about the other disk :) By the way, what happened to ad1? (I don't muck with IDE - I have SCSI so, I am not up on its device naming schemes) Good luck, jerry BIOS names disks as hdN, and bsd as adN (as you already know). The main difference is that BIOS just increments N for the next disk (example: pri/master=hd0, pri/slave=cdrom, sec/master=hd1) and fbsd decides N by IDE position (example: pri/master=ad0, pri/slave=acd0, sec/master=ad2) ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
sysinstall/fdisk drive geometry problem
Hello I finally got another hdd for my home box, decided to do a fresh fbsd install and I ended up with a disk problem :( : ide0: 40GB [FreeBSD wannabe (ufs2) 10GB, storage2 (fat32) 30GB] ide2: 40GB [WinXP (ntfs) 10GB, storage1 (fat32) 30GB] Now when I begin the installation, and go to the partitioning section, fdisk complains about drive geometry and rearranges the drive. Here are the settings: cyls/heads/sectors 19xxx/16/255 (BIOS) 7xxx/16/63 (dmesg this is what fbsd complains to) 4xxx/255/63 (the new fdisk rearrangement) and FreeBSD's fdisk seems to get off on setting the head count to 255!!! I tried setting the bios value and fdisk complains again, but for some reason when I swap the heads and sectors values it does not. Same goes for the dmesg values (drive geometry from the dmesg output). Since I have no experience with changing drive geometry, nor do I understand the bloody thing, I have several issues: - Will I loose the data on 'storage2' if I change the drive geometry? - How should I set up the new drive geometry? What setting is faster/better? more cyls or more sectors (since fdisk is set to use 255 heads)? - If I backup 'storage2', change drive geometry as fbsd/fdisk suggests (or whatever), create a 10g slice and leave the other space unpartitioned, will I be able to partition and format the drive to fat32 from WinXP?

multi-homed host routing problem
Hi all I have a fbsd 4.7 box that has 2 nics rl0 rl1. On rl0 i have a public ip address and on rl1 I have a private 10.20.30.0/24, and I'm running squid proxy for my private ip's. Now i've added a 3rd nic rl2 which has an ADSL router connected to it (another internet source). What I wanted to do is use squid's tcp_outgoing_address to divide traffic by splitting the private ip class with squid's acl's. However this does not work. My question is: How do i route part of the private ip's trough rl0 and the other part trough rl2. Can it be done only by routing or should i use nat (on the rl2 side there is no need for nat, the adsl router has natd)? 10x ahead, -- ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Here are the ifconfig and netstat -r outputs: wb0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet 212.110.94.84 netmask 0xffe0 broadcast 212.110.94.95 inet6 fe80::280:48ff:feb5:af3%wb0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 ether 00:80:48:b5:0a:f3 media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX full-duplex) status: active rl0: flags=8843UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST mtu 1500 inet 192.168.1.1 netmask 0xff00 broadcast 192.168.1.255 inet6 fe80::202:44ff:fe4f:958e%rl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x2 ether 00:02:44:4f:95:8e media: Ethernet autoselect (10baseT/UTP) status: active Routing tables Internet: DestinationGatewayFlagsRefs Use Netif Expire default 212.110.94.65 UGSc40wb0 localhost localhost UH 00lo0 192.168.1 link#2 UC 10 rl0 192.168.1.255 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff UHLWb 1 45rl0 212.110.94.64/27 link#1 UC 80wb0 and I have net.inet.ip.forwarding set to 1 How do I get my box to route packets between the two interfaces 192.168.1.1 and 212.110.94.84? - ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Squid external authentication startup problem
Hi, I'm running FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE and I have Squid 2.5.STABLE1 and MySQL 3.23.54 installed. Squid is configured to use an external shell script sqauth as an authenticator via MySQL database, and it all works fine. Whenever I start squid as root it starts the squid daemon with 5 child proceses of sqauth (as configured), BUT when I reboot and start squid from /etc/rc.local or /usr/local/etc/rc.d/squid.sh the squid daemon starts without the sqauth child proceses. Same thing happens when I start squid from /etc/crontab as root, or any other user for that mather. I tryed giving 777 to squauth and squid, it doese not help. Doese anyone have any idea why is this happening? Can you give me another solution on starting squid after boot time with some kind of a script. -- Pitter ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Perl
Has anyone any recommended perl development editors? Once with syntax highlighting and stuff would be great!
