 Ftp'ed to ftp.freebsd.org using a freebsd-ftp-client

No, ftp.freebsd.org is actually two servers.  At the moment one of them

 In Chapter 2.3 Userland Changes of the ReleaseNotes of CURRENT I read

 It should be corrected in the ReleaseNotes (IMHO)

Yes, that should be changed.  I just asked the RE team permission to fix

Sorry, I should have been more specific.  I was thinking about the

 o   Typically, there is one ASCII tab between VAR= and the value in order

Hehe yes :-). The documentation should just not indicate that it is
possible to install on 8MB, when it isn't.

Currently the FAQ says :

FAQ
3.5. I have only 4 MB of RAM. Can I install FreeBSD?

FreeBSD 2.1.7 was the last version of FreeBSD that could be installed on
a 4MB system. FreeBSD 2.2 and later needs at least 5MB to install on a
new system.

All versions of FreeBSD will run in 4MB of RAM, they just cannot run the
installation program in 4MB. [CUT]
/FAQ

Which doesn't really seem to match any current reality with regards to
both CURRENT and STABLE.

  Have anybody made any recent tests on CURRENT (and STABLE for that
  matter) with regards to minimum RAM requirements, install and normal
  runtime?
 
 Yes; about two months ago there were a couple of people who
 installed on an old 386SX.  The main issue was that they had
 to roll their own distribution from sources, specifically with
 a stripped down kernel without all the weird drivers (which is
 exactly what I talked about in my previous posting).

From what I understood that test was more a test of whether it was
possible to run 5.x on a 386, not to actually find out the minium RAM
for install/run.

I think I will try to dig up my old 486 next week, and try to find the
actual requirements for a sysinstall based installation on more recent
FreeBSD versions.

Inaccessible ad devices

2003-04-04 Thread Simon L. Nielsen
Hello

I have 4 IDE disks that I'm going to use for a small RAID.  During my
testing with the ata(4) software RAID I had created a RAID0 on two of
the disks.  I then deleted it and tried to create a new array (different
interleave) but I had forgotten to unmounted the filesystem on the RAID
I just deleted and I got a kernel panic - at least i think that was the
sequence of events.

The problem is that the RAID configuration was apparently left in a
somewhat undefined state so now there is neither a configured RAID (no
ar device) or any normal ad devices for the two disks.

When I got the panic I was running a older 4.7-RC but I now run -CURRENT
from today on it (dual boot). I have the same problem with the missing
disks under 4.7-RC and 4.8-RELEASE.

I can still create a new RAID on the two remaining disk.  Since updating
the -CURRENT today I get a panic when creating the array (on ad8 and
ad10) but after reboot the array is configured and works. I'm currently
trying to create a proper crash dump for this but i'm rather sure this
is unreleated to the missing disks.

Are you really sure that your kernel/world is in sync? This is the kind
of error you can get if they are not in sync.

Re: Freeze after APIC_IO: Testing 8254 interrupt delivery

 Our newly bought Fujitsu-Siemens F250 boots with the GENERIC kernel, but
 with a recent, SMP-capable CURRENT it freezes after the following line:
 APIC_IO: Testing 8254 interrupt delivery
I had the same problem with a FSC P250 (same motherboard) using 4.7-REL.
It works in SMP mode with a recent 4-STABLE (after MFC of HTT). It
appears to only work if HyperThreading is enabled.

John Baldwin commited changes to -CURRENT a few days ago to disable HTT
unless it is explicitly enabled in the kernel config file. That could be
the problem.

I'm currently trying to get it to work without HTT enabled but so far
not succeeding.

Re: machdep.guessed_bootdev sysctl on i386

 Okay. I have attached a patch which will nuke the sysctl, and replace
 it's use in picobsd's mfs_tree rc scripts with something better, but
 which still needs review.  I have not tested the patch, but this patch
 should not fail, hopefully.
PicoBSD does not necessarily have awk (actually most likely doesn't
since awk is 'big'). cut could be used instead since it much smaller :

mount | grep 'on / ' | cut -f 1 -d ' '

Perhaps somebody has a better way?

I have cc'ed -small, since somebody there might have good idea.

 Yes, SPI stands for Statefull Packet Inspection. Wasn't aware IPFW was a

From ipfw(8) :

HISTORY
 The ipfw utility first appeared in FreeBSD 2.0.  dummynet(4) was intro­
 duced in FreeBSD 2.2.8.  Stateful extensions were introduced in
 FreeBSD 4.0.  ipfw2 was introduced in Summer 2002.

 Any of you can point me some nice pages to learn more about it ?
The ipfw manpage has a lot of information...

This is getting off-topic for current...

From UPDATING :

20030125:
The scheduler framework has grown a second scheduler and consequently
you must specify one and only one scheduler in your kernel config.
The in cvs config files have been updated to use the old scheduler
which may be selected via 'options SCHED_4BSD'.  If you would like
to try the new, much more experimental, scheduler please try
'options SCHED_ULE' and contribute to the arch@ discussion.

Yes it is still RELENG_5_0 - RELENG_5 will not be created untill after
FreeBSD 5.1 or 5.2.

 boot2 no longer accepts keyboard input.  I'm not sure exactly when
 this happened, but it was some time late last year.  I have -Dh in

 the serial console.  It used to be possible to interrupt boot2 before
 it loaded /boot/loader, and type '-h' to switch back to the vga
 console.  This doesn't work any more.
Isn't this fixed by the commit on the 13 by imp :

imp 2003/01/13 13:28:24 PST
  
  Modified files:
sys/boot/i386/boot2  boot2.c
  Log:
  Fix interactive booting:
  o Revision 1.38 introduced the -n flag.  It conflicted with the
RB_BOOTINFO flag, so was in effect always on.  Change the -n flag to
be bit 0x1c instead of 0x1f.  This also had the consequence that a mal-formed
/boot.config would render the system unbootable because the user was
unable to enter anything at all on the command line.
  o Remove the initialization of opt to be RB_BOOTINFO since we filter that bit
out and do not otherwise use it.

I have not tested this but it sounds the it should be working now?

I think the original submitter of the problem would try to look in to
why plperl did not use the .a version, but since I don't use plperl
myself I have not looked more at it myself.

   I am now wrecked at 'plperl' installation as it is 
 mentioned in the discussion.
