Gary Kline wrote: is there any way t o not upgrade all installed ports, but only those that are not current? tired of having my main box grinding away for endless days This is what programs like portmaster and portupgrade are designed to do. If you update your ports tree by portsnap or csup, grab a fresh INDEX by 'make fetchindex' and then run (eg): portupgrade -a it will update in dependency order all of your installed ports where a newer version is available. There are occasional exceptions where this procedure is not sufficient: these are documented in /usr/ports/UPDATING, including instructions on what needs to be done to get up to date. Even so, while UPDATING frequently recommends reinstalling more ports than the regular procedure, it is still almost always a subset of your installed ports. In fact, the only situation I have come across where is is required to upgrade all of the ports on a machine is when upgrading over a major version number. Even that is a bit overkill -- there's no reason to reinstall a port that consists of pure perl or php or shell code, or of sets of images or other non-executable data.

As far as I know, if something is msdosfs-formatted (read: any Windows readable file system, FAT), it always involves a slice device. I never found a situation where access to /dev/da0 would work. My experience is exactly the reverse. I've never before seen a removable-media device (floppy, Zip-drive, JAZ drive) that *did* have a DOS partition table aka BSD slice table. Surely you would not expect a USB floppy to show up as /dev/da0s1? AFAIK the reason for creating slices is to identify sections of the device for use by different OS -- something often needed for multi-boot from a hard drive but seldom on removable media. I sure wasn't planning to use part of this SD card for my camera to store pictures on, and the rest for FreeBSD backups :) Aha, careful. A flash drive/card is more like a removable hard drive. Since it's so much bigger than a floppy etc (typically) it makes sense to have a proper slice (partition) structure. If you want to boot off a floppy, it's a different operation from booting off a HDD for precisely this reason. Whereas a floppy isn't a proper, 'fixed' type disk; it's a tiny thing, suitable for max ~10 files. There's no need to have the overhead of a partition table, MBR etc. Same with CDs, booting off them involves several strange fudges (El Torito). Since a flash card would be a sensible thing to boot off, the designers want it to look more like a hard drive; as well as having the flexibility.

2009/4/13 Tsu-Fan Cheng tfch...@gmail.com: Hi, correct me if I am wrong, but is it true that ntfsprogs is the only port that comes with formating disk into NTFS system? because days ago I also had this problem with my friend's extra USB 1T HD, I had to use my windows laptop to do the job. thanks!! TFC NTFS is one of the 'crown jewels' at Microsoft, who consider the idea of sharing ideas despicable.

How to diagnose hardware problem?
I have what looks like a hardware problem with an Intel 1U server, which I am using mainly as a mysql database server for some of my bigger website clients. The server went down last week with a badly corrupted file system. After spending a day trying to fix the file system, we gave up and did a fresh install of FreeBSD, PF, and mysql, using our daily backups to restore the database. It all seemed to work fine until I switched the websites from the temporary database server that I had been using, onto the restored server. The database ran well for about 2 minutes, then the server crashed again. The filesystem was again corrupted so badly that we could not even log in to look at the logs. We've reinstalled FreeBSD again, just to be able to SSH into the box. It looks like there is probably a hardware problem, like a bad power supply or overheating CPU that fails when the load of the database is applied. Problem is, I have no idea how to determine which bits are failing. Can anyone suggest a favorite book or website that focuses on how to troubleshoot hardware issues?

Must be something new like micro pci, but at any rate, I would prefer not to have to hack my bios to get it to boot with a non-broadcom nic in it anyways. ndisgen has always been an acceptable, if distasteful, solution in past days. I use ndis on an Inspiron XPS with a Dell 1450 wireless card, which uses a Broadcom chipset. I'm still running 6.3, but 7.x probably acts the same way. It takes *two* ifconfig commands to get the interface up and working. The up has to appear by itself on the first ifconfig. Once that completes okay, I then run a second ifconfig with the rest of the options. In other words, if I do # ifconfig ndis0 up [rest of options] all that happens is the interface comes up, and the rest of the options are ignored. If I do # ifconfig ndis0 up # ifconfig ndis0 [rest of options] all is well. That means, of course, that I end up having to do it manually because the stuff in /etc/rc.d doesn't handle more than one ifconfig per interface on system startup. :-( Scott Bennett, Comm.

Re: How to diagnose hardware problem?
First things first; if the machine is still in warranty, don't mess with it but send it back to the manufacturer and demand a replacement. It is in warranty and I am following their process. I'm hoping to short-circuit that process by finding the problem on my own, if possible. Plus, I've never really had to deal with a hardware failure before, so it's a good learning process. If the machine is out of warranty, you might consider replacing it altogether. My employer's IT department ditches PC's and servers at the first failure after the warranty runs out. Accordinf to them it's cheaper than repairing them. But if you want to have a go, this might help: http://www.daileyint.com/hmdpc/manual.htm Basically, it's just a problem of elimination. First check if your machine is the only one having problems at the hosting site. Maybe they have unstable electrical power. Then make sure that all expansion cards and RAM are well-seated, and that all connectors are OK. Also check that there is no dust build- up on e.g. fans and heatsinks. If necessary, clean carefully with (dry, oil free) compressed air. Dust can lead to short circuits or reduced cooling. Next, look for capacitors that have leaked fluid, or have bulging metal end plates on the motherboard; those are dead or dying. It's a leading cause of motherboard failure. It is possible to replace them, but you'll need the right equipment: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/fixing-motherboard,1606.html Install a monitoring program like mbmon or healthd, and have it log to another machine or a USB stick mounted syncronously. Monitor CPU temperature, fan speeds and the different voltages. Not all power supplies are created equally. See the articles at tom's hardware: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/Components,1/Power-Supplies,6/ If you've found nothing so far, it's time to start swapping out components, starting with the power supply.

6.2 STABLE to 6.2 RELEASE problem
Hello, I was wondering if anyone might have some insight into this problem I'm having. I've downgraded a 6.2 STABLE system to 6.2 RELEASE for the purpose of being able to upgrade it via freebsd-update. I followed the steps as detailed here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html To summarize, the currently recommended way of upgrading FreeBSD from sources is: # cd /usr/src # make buildworld # make buildkernel # make installkernel # shutdown -r now Note: There are a few rare cases when an extra run of mergemaster -p is needed before the buildworld step. These are described in UPDATING. In general, though, you can safely omit this step if you are not updating across one or more major FreeBSD versions. After installkernel finishes successfully, you should boot in single user mode (i.e. using boot -s from the loader prompt). Then run: # adjkerntz -i # mount -a -t ufs # mergemaster -p # cd /usr/src # make installworld # mergemaster # reboot Now, after I reboot, I get an error when it tries mounting /usr: NO WRITE ACCESS INCONSISTENCIES FOUND, run fsck MANUALLY! So, I did that and it found some free block inconsistencies and fixed those but it is still bailing when it tries mounting /usr on the reboot. I can boot to single user mode and run fsck -p and that is fine. I can mount the partition manually and browse through the files fine. One other weird thing is that it seems to mount /dev/md0 on /var as well which doesn't look right. Nothing in /etc/fstab about it. Maybe some other file that got mixed up during mergemaster? I said fix later for all files mergemaster came back with. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

When I try a test print in localhost:631 I get an error message: /usr/local/libexec/cups/filter/foomatic-rip failedI need help with this one.

What happens when you install /usr/ports/print/foomatic-filters and restart cups with # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/cupsd restart ? Greetings Uli.

Thank you, Bob Falanga I also am having problems printing on Suse 11 with CUPS from Maple version 12 (Maple, using its own copy of JRT 1.6 finds no printer services). There is a new (2008) book on CUPS administration which I will shortly be ordering from amazon.com since CUPS appears to be the wave of the future. ___ 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

Is your printer attached to a SUSE or a FreeBSD machine? Where do you run Maple - on SUSE or FreeBSD?
