The two are completely unrelated.

For the first what you say below could be a solution, if set them to
0; (an 5.x I would add that also acpi and apic could count)

For the second you have to provide more details.

 hard error reading fsbn
 ad0: DMA problem fallback to PIO mode

However this usually suggest hw trouble.

Re: libfreetype.a: Bad address -- hard error reading

2004-03-11 Thread eodyna
Hello,

Thanks for your response.
I dont think they are totally unrelated, because when
i try to install XFree86-4 and that particular library
it gets the error messages stated below (one to stdout
and the other to dmesg). All other port installations
work fine. (Before and after the XFree86-4 install)

I orginally thought it was a hardware problem as well.
but to have it fail on two disks with the same sort of
error? that is highly unlikely, and installing
4.8-RELEASE yeilds no errors. fsck doesn't produce any
errors either. And i dont think it is a ports problem
because XFree86-4.3.0,1 works on 4.8-RELEASE.  So this
has left me thinking its either a bios thingy or
something in 4.9-RELEASE kernel that doesn't like my
laptop.


or maybe i jump to too many conculsions?
Hence why i would like some advice on how to trouble
shoot this.

thanks again

This is the post from yesterday with the main error
msg:

large snip
further more, when i look in dmesg i get the
following:

Ive taken out the harddrive and replaced it with a
different one and i still see the same sort of error
message

ive also tried running fsck, but it yields no errors.

 I have gone to install XFree86-4
 and get the following error

This happen when an error is detected by the disk driver. This can be
caused by hardware failure or incompatibility, or a driver bug. You get
a vm_fault if the kernel is trying to page in a block of memory for a
process but it can't.  You probably get this instead of a regular read
error because AFAIR  cp and install uses mmap() on files smaller than 8
MB.

Since you changed the HDD it's probably a driver bug.

However I would be curios if you get the always the same fsbn 
numbers. I would be very strange. Stage also is that it's failing on the
same file.
 
 or maybe i jump to too many conculsions?

Aside from posting this + boot -v on mobile, I don't know.
