Additional Hard Drive Prblems

2006-02-11 Thread Devin Miller 
Hello Everyone,

Thanks in advanced for helping me. 

I am doing a new install of FreeBSD 6.0 RELEASE

My computer is a Dell PowerEdge 400sc

I have 2 hard drives installed in the computer:  1 80GB IDE hard drive and 1
200 GB SATA hard drive

I can install FreeBSD on the IDE drive (detected as ad0) fine and have no
problems.  The issue arises after the install when I try to fdisk and Label
the SATA drive (detected as ad4).  I want to use the SATA drive as a depot
of sorts to hold all my media. 

I use sysinstall after the installation to slice and label the drive.  After
I do this and reboot FreeBSD will not boot properly. I usually get just a
blinking cursor where the boot loader should be or an invalid partition
error.  I have tried installing with a boot loader, without a boot loader, I
have verified I am slicing and labeling the correct disk.  I'm kind of at my
wits end.  I have reloaded about 10 times trying various ideas.  Any ideas
on what I could be doing wrong?  Thanks for any help given.

Devin Miller

Postfix Help

2005-08-18 Thread Devin Miller 

Greetings Everyone,

I have recently been experimenting with FreeBSD 5.4 RELEASE to setup an
email server following the directions listed here:
http://postfixwiki.org/index.php?title=Virtual_Users_and_Domains_with_Courie
r-IMAP_and_MySQL

I am pretty comportable with FreeBSD and my problem appears to be with
version conflicts.  I installed MySQL version 5.0.9_1.

During the make process for Postfix 2.1 a different version of the MySQL
client tried to install.  It throws an error telling me that they are
incompatible and the port installation process for Postfix starts there.

Is there any way around this or do I have to uninstall the current version
of MySQL and use the one that Postfix wants?  It just seems like MySQL 3.2
is much older than the 5.x that I am used to.

Thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.

Devin Miller
