Newfs crash on external HDD
I'm trying to use an external HDD for backups. In case it's relevant: this is a SATA drive in an enclosure w/ eSATA and USB 2 interfaces (which shows up as JMicron JM20336 SATA, USB Combo in dmesg). The jack on the computer is USB 1, however. I'm currently running i386 4.4-stable with raidframe. Initializing with fdisk and partitioning with disklabel worked fine, but several attempts to newfs have caused crashes, with messages like the following: umass0: BBB reset failed, STALLED umass0: BBB bulk-in clear stall failed, STALLED umass0: BBB bulk-out clear stall failed, STALLED I didn't see anything mentioned on openbsd.org/plus45.html or openbsd.org/errata45.html about an update to umass. Did I miss something, so that this problem could be fixed by upgrading to 4.5? Otherwise, any ideas on how to fix this? The output of fdisk, disklabel, newfs, trace, ps, and the subsequent boot messages follows.

Choosing components for RAID array [Was: newfs changes fstype...]
Michal wrote (04/22/09 08:45): So create an a and a d partition not an a and a b partition. Of course, this guide is for 2 drives that are both bootable, yours will be simpler of course but it should help you out. Thanks; that's helpful. I know that the array can be bootable, but the kernel must be located outside of the array, according to raidctl(8). My array will be for /home only. So it seems like there are two options: 1) Use wd1a and wd2a for the components of the array. 2) Use wd1d and wd2d as the components and setting up wd1a and wd2a with a 4.2BSD fs. The only dis/advantages I see would be that (1) maximizes the space for the array, but (2) leaves open the possibility that I could boot from wd1 or wd2 in the future by putting a basic OpenBSD installation in wd1a or wd2a. Are there any other considerations I should take into account? Or any advice on choosing between these two? Thanks!
newfs changes fstype from RAID to 4.2BSD?
I'm trying to have everything except /home mounted on wd0, with /home mounted on a RAID 1 array comprising wd1a and wd2a. There are no other partitions on wd1 and wd2. (Unless you count the c partition.) I tried to prepare wd1 and wd2 with: # fdisk -i wd1 # disklabel -E wd1 and following the prompts. After writing the disklabel, here's the output: # disklabel wd1 # Inside MBR partition 3: type A6 start 63 size 488392002 # /dev/rwd1c: type: ESDI disk: ESDI/IDE disk label: WDC WD2500AAJB-0 flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 255 sectors/cylinder: 16065 cylinders: 30401 total sectors: 488397168 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # microseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # microseconds drivedata: 0 16 partitions: #size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg] a:488392002 63RAID c:4883971680 unused 0 0 So far so good. Following some advice I found on the web [1][2], I continued with: # newfs wd1a Before moving forward. But now disklabel gives the following output: # disklabel wd1 # Inside MBR partition 3: type A6 start 63 size 488392002 # /dev/rwd1c: type: ESDI disk: ESDI/IDE disk label: WDC WD2500AAJB-0 flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 255 sectors/cylinder: 16065 cylinders: 30401 total sectors: 488397168 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # microseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # microseconds drivedata: 0 16 partitions: #size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg] a:488392002 63 4.2BSD 2048 163841 c:4883971680 unused 0 0 It looks like wd1a's label changed. How? More importantly, is this a problem for setting up a RAID array? I know that the manual for raidctl says While FS_BSDFFS (e.g. 4.2BSD) will also work as the component type, the type FS_RAID (e.g. RAID) is preferred for RAIDframe use, as it is required for features such as auto-configuration. But it would be nice to keep my wd1a, and wd2a once I get to it, as FS_RAID. I'm running 4.4-stable with GENERIC plus raid support kernel. Which, in case it's relevant, I did by adding pseudo-device raid4 option RAID_AUTOCONFIG to the GENERIC config file. (I don't know how *else* one would do it, but perhaps the order of the lines matters?) Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Re: newfs changes fstype from RAID to 4.2BSD?
Nick Holland wrote (04/21/09 21:39): I looked. Your advice does not tell you to newfs your raw RAID partition. Go read it again. I REALLY recommend UNDERSTANDING how this works, not just blindly following someone's recipe. You're right -- on both counts. Emailing the list was an attempt to get from the blindly following stage to the understanding stage. Now the that newfs issue is cleared up, here's another question: the author of a page I cited writes, In my experience I couldn't the 'a' partition to become of type FS_RAID. But according to my disklabel output, it looks like I was able to do this: # disklabel wd1 # Inside MBR partition 3: type A6 start 63 size 488392002 # /dev/rwd1c: type: ESDI disk: ESDI/IDE disk label: WDC WD2500AAJB-0 flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 255 sectors/cylinder: 16065 cylinders: 30401 total sectors: 488397168 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # microseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # microseconds drivedata: 0 16 partitions: #size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg] a:488392002 63RAID c:4883971680 unused 0 0
