RE: Upgrading to 6.2-RELEASE from 6.2-STABLE

2007-06-22 Thread Mark Stout
The mountroot was failing to find and mount /dev/da0s1a.  The device
/dev/da0s1a is in /etc/fstab.  Going to the loader prompt and loading the
old kernel booted fine.  So the problem appears to lie somewhere in the boot
files or I added a option/device I probably should not have in the kernel.

not sure about fbsd but nbsd tries to resolve the BIOS drive ID (hex
0x80?) that the 1st stage boot loader loaded off of into a candidate to
initialize the file system mount from.

Then it goes after /etc/fstab, which has to agree .

RE: Upgrading to 6.2-RELEASE from 6.2-STABLE

2007-06-20 Thread Mark Stout
Well I got the server up and running on the old kernel.  I redid the
buildworld and buildkernel.  I've held off for now on doing installworld and
installkernel until I get a better understanding of what caused me to go
into mountroot.  I use the "Escape to loader prompt" prompt to load the old
kernel.

Does anyone know what causes one to load into a mountroot prompt?

Re: Upgrading to 6.2-RELEASE from 6.2-STABLE

2007-06-12 Thread Spiros Papadopoulos

Hi Mark,

Some months ago i tried to upgrade my source from 5.2 to 6.1.
I did "something" wrong and It took me 2 to 4 weeks to stabilize my system
and to be honest
i tried so many things that i am not sure what I did exactly and brought it
back to normal.
I remember re-building and re-installing the kernel and suddenly everything
was working properly. I believe that in your case the
problem was caused while using
mergemaster... In general it is not recommended to update to a major version
like this
and the procedure is slightly different than when upgrading from a minor
version.

After what i read and since this is a production machine, i
believe it is better that
you take a (manual...?) back up of the configuration files (even copy &
paste them on paper -
if you cannot boot, mount the drive with a CD) and re-install 6.2clean :(
You have to take the decision whether this will save you time or not, since
after all these it
gets confusing, you cannot really remember what you were doing (4 days ago)
and you may cause even
more problems or waste time if you continue..
It is even more difficult for us to understand what went wrong in your
case...

Ideally you could use a different machine (or hdd - temporarily) to do this
and then
if you want sit down quietly and play with the current one.

Kind Regards

I believe the mountroot is during the boot load.  I'm not anywhere near

I have no idea what the problem is.

What is 'mountroot' - is that the boot loader or the kernel/system
giving you that?

try mounting your root drive!

do a `df -k`, anything already mounted?

oh!  or try:
fsck

did it ask you to login?

Re: Upgrading to 6.2-RELEASE from 6.2-STABLE

2007-06-12 Thread Mark Stout
I couldn't load da0s1a even though /dev/da0s1a is my root drive.  Manually load 
my old kernel from the prompt worked.

I believe the mountroot is during the boot load.  I'm not anywhere near being 
able to do anything.

I have no idea what the problem is.

try mounting your root drive!

do a `df -k`, anything already mounted?

oh!  or try:
fsck

did it ask you to login?

Do you really need those options? GENERIC is sufficient for production 
use. Try running it first and see how it goes. I'd recommend 
adding/tweaking things only if you understand the outcome and necessity 
of them.

I did not remove the obj directories and everything in my /etc/make.conf
file is commented out except for USA_RESIDENT and PERL_VER=5.8.8 and
PERL_VERSION=5.8.8



On a mad hunch I would suspect stale files in /usr/obj/
If they are still there (and the cause of your problems)
they will muss up your build on RELENG_6_2 as well.

Did you remove your object directories before
starting the build?
Did you build without an /etc/make.conf?

I'd prefer to remain at 6.2-STABLE but I can't find where the problem is
with these IP errors.  I'm figuring I've got a mixed code and that's the
root cause but I'm not sure.

Hello,

I recently upgraded from 5.4-RELEASE to 6.2-STABLE.  Now I'm having problems
with the TCP stack.  I suspect its because of code differences.  I may have
some older 5.4 code that was used during the build world process.  For
example, here's a partial ifconfig -a output

fxp0: flags=8843 mtu 1500
options=8
inet 71.4.48.6 netmask 0xfe00 broadcast 71.4.49.255
inet 71.4.48.4 netmask 0x broadcast 71.4.48.4
inet 71.4.48.7 netmask 0x broadcast 71.4.48.7
inet 71.4.48.9 netmask 0x broadcast 71.4.48.9

What's interesting is I can ping 71.4.48.6 from the console.

But I get the following whenever I ping any other aliased IP from the local
console.  I can ping these from other machines.
[root 6]> ping 71.4.48.4
PING 71.4.48.4 (71.4.48.4): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Invalid argument
ping: sendto: Invalid argument


Looking up a domain using dig I get similar errors.  It actually returns the
info I want but I still get the errors.
[root 7]> dig www.google.com
/usr/src/lib/bind/isc/../../../contrib/bind9/lib/isc/unix/socket.c:1151:
internal_send: 71.4.48.2#53: Invalid argument
/usr/src/lib/bind/isc/../../../contrib/bind9/lib/isc/unix/socket.c:1151:
internal_send: 71.4.48.3#53: Invalid argument

71.4.48.2 and 71.4.48.3 are my DNS.


So what I thought I'd do is move to 6.2-RELEASE.  What I wanted to do is
install the source code from
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE/src/* and do a
build world and build kernel.  I assume that's really all I need to build a
new system.  Are there any caveats to do an upgrade this way?


Iff you really do want to move back to 6.2-RELEASE,
I would advise building from the security branch, so
in your supfile make sure you have
tag=RELENG_6_2
