Re: European orders
*snip* If they are as intelligent as I guess, they will not communicate on this list. Making this public was a huge mistake. *snip* We have been trying to get Wim to catch up on payments for more than two years -- privately. *snip* Then after a few smaller postings, Wim posted a large web page which is his side of the story, with hundreds of lines of details. So who made it public? The announcement and the smaller postings aren't public? *snip* Why should new profits by him be used to pay the debt? Why should the money he paid on his brand new house in Belgium when he was supposed to be so poor not pay for it? A house can be financed in many ways. That's not a good example. Secondly, I have no idea when the money came in. I have nothing to do with the Computer Shop finances except as an employee. *snip* Not for a year. Why should I? The Computer Shop had made it quite clear to Wim that he was behind in payments and should get caught up. *snip* And everyone should belive it? Wim wrote about details. You didn't do it nor the Computer Shop did it. If you don't want to make your details public it's ok for me but I think that there are a lot of other people that want to know what's going on. Don't post this serious accusations without giving proof. This Thread should be stopped because nothing can be compared. I read Wims details but nothing from the opposite side so it's not ok to talk further. Oh and.. a gentlemen's agreement including such a hughe amount of money is very nice but next time I think a real contract would be better. Even among friends. -- ~ vb
Re: soekris/pcenginges and RO mounting

What I'm looking for are starting points to read about what to do when RO mounting the root fs (and all other parts) especially on CF-media. So my ultimate target would be to: * mount as much as possible RO * still have system logging available (nfs mounting, logserver, whatever suits best - any pointers welcome) * main concern is exhaustion of write cycles on CF media usage of the box will be a home router in the first place and probably expanding to a file server and pxe boot server with usb drives attached to it for storage. I am familiar with general (linux) process of RO mounting partitions but I don't have any experience with CF cards and read that it's probably best to RO mount CF-media. Forgive me the missing/wrong terminology but I found just too much infos/howtos with differing tips on wether to care about write cycles or not, or special needs to take care of with CF media. Hope it makes sense what I ask for thanks martin -- http://tumblr.marcher.name https://twitter.com/MartinMarcher http://www.xing.com/profile/Martin_Marcher http://www.linkedin.com/in/martinmarcher You are not free to read this message, by doing so, you have violated my licence and are required to urinate publicly. Thank you. Jonathan Weiss did a great job writing down his solution on this topic: http://blog.innerewut.de/2005/05/14/openbsd-3-7-on-wrap http://blog.innerewut.de/2005/05/19/openbsd-3-7-on-wrap-revised http://blog.innerewut.de/2005/06/03/small-update-on-openbsd-3-7-on-wrap Even if he used 3.7 his tutorial is still up to date. I use the method on my pc-engines wrap. If you want your system to just route your traffic and you don't need the logs you can just mount everything ro and you are able to pull the plug if you want your system to shut down :) Thats what I do, I don't use rsync (mentioned in the tutorial) because I don't need logs, mail etc. But that's only useful if you don't use the router as file server. ~ vb
Re: 4.3-beta

During the past 4.2 install the install progress soother displayed --stalled-- quite a few times as it progressed during the cd-to-cf writes. The 4.3 install never, not once, --stalled--. Very nice performance bump. Nice work! 2. bwi wireless card working for the very first time. :-) 3. Then I went long and tried to config bwi0 as an access point and discovered mediaopt hostap is not an available option. :-( Will hostap functionality be coming soon? Or is it a limit of the chipset? All in all and so far everything else seems to be normal and working per usual. Does anyone want me to post dmesg or anything else that may be helpful to the dev's? Say what and where to and it shall be done. Thanks!!! /Scott Had the same --stalled-- problems with 4.2 and Releases before it. I noticed that it won't stall while using the floppy install image instead of the cd image ( I still wonder why... ) Now I give 4.3 Beta a try with a cd. ~ vb
