 The source will be on the CDROM.  Nor is there any major importance to

If a tag was laid down can't it be retrieved indefinitely? A non-branching

 If any of you see these, could you try to see if they correlate

Since I replaced a September 15 -current with October 14 -current, I
get lots of these within 24 or 48 hours of booting.  

Setting kern.timecounter.method to 1 does stop them.

Re: Make release troubles

1999-11-10 Thread Annelise Anderson

There are a couple of things you can do if your make release
fails while trying to make the docs.

You could use "on demand" dialing for ppp so that it connects only
when it needs to (and hangs up after some period of inactivity) so
you're not connected for so long.  Making these ports is the only
part of a make release that requires fetching files.

You could also have the make release continue more or less where it
left off.  You do *not* want to start it over by typing "make release" 
in /usr/src/release, as this will delete what's already been done.
But you can chroot to the directory where the release is being built
and run the file "mk" in that directory.  This is a shell script 
that is created when you run "make release" in /usr/src/release, and
once the chroot directive is reached in the Makefile in /usr/src/release,
only what's in the chroot directory structure is relevant.  Running
"mk" from this directory should allow things to continue where they
left off, because this script incorporates the variables you decided
upon when you edited the Makefile in /usr/src/release and runs
the :doRELEASE target in Makefile in $CHROOTDIR/usr/src/release,
which records ("touch release.1", for example) what's been done.

An alternative is to define a target in /usr/src/release/Makefile
called (e.g.) release.0, and have it simply chroot to the directory
where you're building the release and run mk there.  You can then
define in mk any target you want to build in the Makefile in
$CHROOTDIR/usr/src/release, and then put this target in the 
Makefile.  This means you can continue where you left off by
typing "make release.0" in /usr/src/release.

By this time the ports distfiles will already have been copied to
$CHROOTDIR/usr/ports/distfiles, and anything in the /usr/ports/distfiles
directory or wherever you tell it to get the distfiles (/usr/ports/
distfiles.release in your case) will not be found.  If you need to
add a distfile, you need to put it in $CHROOTDIR/usr/ports/distfiles.  

A possible strategy before beginning the make release is to move the
existing /usr/ports/distfiles to a hold location, do "make install"
in /usr/ports/textproc/docproj, and hope that you in this way get all
the distfiles you need for the release.  You might have to deinstall
first so that it does go through the whole build process and gets all
the dependencies.  If you do this, you want to make sure your version
of the ports tree in /usr/ports is the same as the version you want
to build in "make release."  I personally think these little ports
like tidy are troublesome because the version numbers change so often;
so probably the best approach is to have an open connection during
the build of doc.1 so it can get anything you haven't yet gotten.

 Here it just stopped (and had been waiting for 9 hours...). No error

pccard status?

1999-05-16 Thread Annelise Anderson
I installed the April 13 -current snap on my laptop, but I
can't build a kernel that will run pccards.  pcic fails to
allocate an IRQ, and the kernel module pcic won't load.

I thought April 13 would avoid the newbus problems, but
apparently there were problems back then too.

A kernel build with -current sources from March 14 or so
works, but has other problems (can't run top, ps, w).

I tried using /usr/src/sys/pccard from March 14, but this
makes no difference.

Is there anything I might try to fix this, other than
installing an earlier version?

I have used dump and restore to clone a running system, but you
want to be careful about what you don't want to be identical on 
the two systems, or, in my case, the two drives.

I use rsync to keep it up to date, so the second disk is a
backup for the first.  This can be used from one host to another.
Again, you might not want everything the same.  But rsync is
quite fast since it only transfers differences.
