Re: Headless Install
I try to install 4.10 on headless PC(without a monitor and vga output) So I've used my laptop as a serial console (via null modem cable). All was wonderfull, but after end of install procedure und reboot, I see with this terminal (cu -l /dev/cuaa0) all and the date for the login line. But not the login prompt. So I can't to log in and do anything. What have I to do, to log in this headless PC? Maksym, you need to start a getty process on the serial line, by editing /etc/ttys like this: console noneunknown off secure ttyv0 /usr/libexec/getty Pc cons25 off secure ttyv1 /usr/libexec/getty Pc cons25 off secure ttyv2 /usr/libexec/getty Pc cons25 off secure ttyv3 /usr/libexec/getty Pc cons25 off secure ttyv4 /usr/libexec/getty Pc cons25 off secure ttyv5 /usr/libexec/getty Pc cons25 off secure ttyv6 /usr/libexec/getty Pc cons25 off secure ttyv7 /usr/libexec/getty Pc cons25 off secure ttyd0 /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 dialup on secure ttyd1 /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 dialup off secure ttyd2 /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 dialup off secure ttyd3 /usr/libexec/getty std.9600 dialup off secure In /stand/sysinstall (or /usr/sbin/sysinstall), you can edit ttys. I'm running 5.2-CURRENT on net4801 Soekris hardware, and this is exaclty what is needed to get login prompt on the serial console. Thanks! It works pre[tty] good! :-) I have two more questions : Sometimes I see warning: terminal is not fully functional. So I can't edit kernel file mit ee - the text is shown shifted in their lines. Must I use another terminal program to help this? And what you can do with headless PC? Can you control this PC only in command prompt? Or (may be) you can use anything like X - twm?

4.10 - something strange
Hello, I've installed for a two days 4.10 on my laptop And new kernel with options options PNPBIOS device pcm # for my onboard sound device wi # for my Lucent ORiNOCO (so was in 4.9 kernel also) But in 4.9 my soundcard and wi0 worked perfectly Now in 4.10 it worked very strange: during boot-process it starts wi0 only about every 2-nd reboot(e.g. time - 50%) and sound (I'm using KDE) - sometimes I hear *garbage* during KDE-start-up, sometimes good sound; but even when I hear good sound at start-up, later I want to hear mp3 (in the same X_session) but I hear *garbage*. Then (for example in 10 minuts) I can hear again *real* musik (e.g. mp3, wav). And vice versa. So I don't know, what that can be ... Can I handle this problem or the better way - back in 4.9??? May be someone already knew, how to make it right? Or someone have the same problem?

It's designed to be a small download. disc1 is the typical FreeBSD first CD. It includes FreeBSD and a number of commonly used packages. disc2 is add on stuff. Lots of packages and perhaps other things (not sure of exact details) May be anyone knows what add on's on it???

ORiNOCO Wireless - troubles
Hi! I have a Siemens 510 laptop with 128 MB RAM and 4GB HDD. It has no Network card onboard. So I have only wireless pccard ORiNOCO Silver. I had before Intel Wireless/PRO 2011B. This one was bad (for FreeBSD) Now I have ORiNOCO, but I can't make it working. It works in Linux, but I want FreeBSD. I have compile new kernel, but it says: CIS is too long - truncating! pccard0: Card has no functions! cbb0: PC Card card activation failed Can anybody say, what must I doing?
