Re: freebsd in dos extended ?

Why do you want to install it on a DOS extended partition? Just remove that extended patition and install FreeBSD in the unused portion of the disk. Install the FreeBSD boot manager so you can boot into whichever OS you want to. Mike.

Sysctl question (again)

Hi! the technical question follows the next commentary. This is the second (third) time I post this question. I'm wondering why I haven't got any answers. Is it because this isn't the right forum? Is it because I haven't been clear enough? Is it because my bad english? Any clue on why the people

Is it ok to compile a device driver as a module though no load_function is declared in DRIVER_MODULE()?

Hi, i've got a little question about device drivers for FreeBSD. I'm testing my device driver by compiling it as a module and kldloading it. But as I don't want to use it as a module in the future I declared DRIVER_MODULE(..) as follows: DRIVER_MODULE( ir, isa, ir_isa_driver, ir_devclass, 0,

User-defined bit in sysctl flags ?

still more ypserv woes

Ok... I am coming to the conclusion that there is some sort of kernel issue that is causing this problem. Here is what I have done and discovered to date (this is all with 4.3-RC2 FWIW): At some point the 'qhead' CIRCLEQ structure in yp_dblookup.c gets corrupted. This is declared as a static,

Re: Idea about modules build

It would also be nice to be able to update third-party modules (like those in ports, x11, etc...) after a kernel recompile. Perhaps some way of setting these up into /usr/local? Peter Pentchev had the audacity to say: On Sat, Apr 14, 2001 at 07:51:31PM +0400, Vladimir B. Grebenschikov wrote:

ypserv: a resolution (i think)

After some more intensive debugging, and a leap of faith, I _think_ I have the problem licked, but I would appreciate some more brains to examine the logic. The original cause of ypserv's problems was the sharing of DBPs between the parent and child. The resolution to this was to close all of

Shoutcast, high cpu, threads

Hi, I'm running shoutcast on a 4.2R machine, and I'm finding that the shoutcast server, when idle climbs up to around 90% cpu usage. Included is a bit of back-and-forth with a shoutcast support person. I'm not too clear on what he's talking about, is there any information I can pass on to him
