Re: Help booting FreeBSD with a ZFS root filesystem

2010-01-25 Thread George Liaskos
I had the same issue because i forgot to copy the zpool.cache under
/zroot/boot/zfs.

On Mon, Jan 25, 2010 at 9:31 PM, Ross Penner ross.pen...@gmail.com wrote:
 I'm trying to set up a system using ZFS as the root filesystem. I
 followed this guide: (http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot).
 Everything went swimmingly until I rebooted and the system failed to

 output:

 Type '?' for a list of command, 'help' for more detailed help.
 OK


 I used the memstick 8.0-Release. Can anybody suggest what could have
 gone wrong, or how I could find out what could have gone wrong?

 Thank you for any help

Hi

Did you try the binary driver x11/nvidia-driver? Your card should be supported.

 Hello,

 I have bought new notebook with GeForce GTX 260M and installed amd64
 distribution of freebsd 8 because of 4GB RAM.

 Is there any way to run OpenGL (get drivers for this graphics card)?

  I do suspect personally that the ext4 filesystem is the reason for the

  difference, prior to reformatting, i deleted a 190GB file off the raid,
  under UFS the delete took quite some time (well over 10 seconds), under
 ext4
  the deletion of the same size file took about 3 seconds.
 
  But what I said with ext4 being faster then the aging UFS still rings
 true
  in my mind, look at the recent Phoronix benchmarks for yourself and see
 (10
  pages of benchmarks).
 
 
 http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=articleitem=freebsd8_benchmarksnum=1
  (skip to page 7 of the benchmarks if you want to see the I/O stuff
 relating
  to disk performance)

 According to the first page they used the default configuration of all
 benchmarked OS'es.
 And what is the default mount option on Linux async

 The FreeBSD man page for mount describes this async option as follows:

 async   All I/O to the file system should be done asynchronously.
        This is a dangerous flag to set, since it does not guar-
        antee that the file system structure on the disk will
        remain consistent.  For this reason, the async flag
        should be used sparingly, and only when some data recov-
        ery mechanism is present.


 The OpenBSD man page has the following additional remark:

        The most common use of this flag is to speed up
        restore(8) where it can give a factor of two speed in-
        crease.

 Conclusion: you cannot compare filesystem performance, when you give
 one a unfair speed advantage of what could be a factor two.

 you are of course entirely correct, however one of the goals of more modern
 file systems eg ext4 is to make async safe to use, because of this speed up.
 At the end of the day faster is faster simple as. Having said that it would
 be nice to see a gjournaled ufs system for comparison, as well as zfs

It would be nice if Firefox used the plugin mechanism to do the decoding.

 Or at least with NDIS and amd64?

No, i do not have this card but i trust the man pages :)

Install www/cntlm from ports, it has a simple config file that you must edit.

It authenticates to ISA and listens on a specified local port, you can
set http/ftp_proxy to localhost:port and fetch(1) will roll.

Re: Chromium 19 core dumps on launch...

 Friday I installed Chromium again because it would be nice to have a
 browser to test in other than Firefox and Opera. It was installed using
 portinstall -R chromium, which *appeared* to function properly.

 However, trying to run chrome results in:
 pid 50993 (chrome), uid 1001: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)

 From what I found online, it looked like I may have been encountering an
 issue with devel/google-perftools, but on reinstall was able to confirm
 that this is building with gcc not clang.

 I have also removed my ~/.config/chromium directory with no change in
 behavior.



 Not sure if it's relevant, but the last version of Chromium that was
 *functional* for me was 12. Versions 13-16 didn't support loading web
 pages (the browser would launch, but if I entered a URL in the address
 bar, I could leave the browser running overnight and it still wouldn't
 have started loading a page). Then when 17 and 18 wouldn't even compile
 (marked ignore), I just removed package.

Please try 19.0.1084.56_1, devel/google-perftools is not a dependency
of chromium anymore.

 I will say that even though on the surface OpenBSD appears to have a

 I tend to use FreeBSD for my desktop needs because of things like
 Nvidia Graphics (esp now that there is amd64 support)

 Where's that? The Nvidia site says nothing about it yet, and the makefile
 for x11/nvidia-driver still says ONLY_FOR_ARCHS=i386. I'm eagerly waiting
 for it, but I can't find anything other than a forum post (I don't have the
 address handy at this computer, but I know it's somewhere in the mailing

 also wine works in FreeBSD and some of my clinets still run windows apps.

 I find FreeBSD is the middle ground the world needs between Linix and
 OpenBSD

 I'm working my way through a re-education for EC2.  I read a lot of posts
 but find it confusing to keep up with the current state of the art as to
 what information is applicable and what is not:

 1. I had convinced myself that I was being told that I had to use a Windows
 instance but then found this AMI.  It launched for T1.micro, always with the
 note that it was available for the free-tier which is important to me.  Have
 I been too optimistic or is it, indeed, running with the free-tier
 restrictions?

 2. Unfortunately, after I had spent a couple of hours on installing ports, I
 installed pkgng.  It seemed to install OK but then when I ran pkg2ng it
 didn't work throwing the following error message twice.

 /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Undefined symbol Quiet referenced from COPY
 relocation in /usr/sbin/pkg_info.

 and then ...

 Conversion has been successfully finished
 Your old packages database has been moved to: /var/db/pkg.bak

 There is no sign of a pkg.bak anywhere on the machine and, of course, pkg_*
 tools don't work. /var/db/pkg is still fully populated with what looks like
 the correct files. There is also no perl installed

 So my question is Is there any way I can recover pkg_* tools or get pkgng
 to function?  With only a couple of hours in it, I'm tempted to just start
 over and use one of the RELEASE AMIs.

 3. I also noted a thread where Colin Percival talked about an initial launch
 as c1.medium to set things up and then restarting as t1.micro.  Won't this
 trigger a minimum bill for 1 month being added to my free-tier $0.00?

 Thanks for any help responses to get me pointed in the right direction.

 Hi list,

 I'm getting a consistent build error when trying to build the latest version

 This is on:

 Anyone offer me some advice on how to fix? The previous version of Chromium 
 built fine on this machine.

Hm, please try the following
