Did you create the link before or after the programs started? Most
won't check that file after they start, so they stay in UTC.
i am finding out that this is a curious situation.
the said issue happens on a virtual openbsd

Depends on the arch. i386 is limited to 1G, amd64 is limited to 8G per
process. What happens if more memory is allocated than the available
swap is that the kernel will kill random processes to free swap. That
might be

hi there,
2 scenarios on the same notebook:
1. booting bsd.rd (jan 15 snapshot), fsck /dev/wd0a, no errors/warnings.
2. normal boot, then:
$ sudo fsck -n /dev/wd0a
** /dev/rwd0a (NO WRITE)
** Last Mounted on /
** Root file system
** Phase 1 - Check Blocks and Sizes
** Phase 2 - Check Pathnames

You ran fsck on a mounted filesystem. Don't do that.
yes, true.

ok, i have solved this mystery of mine.
i had good sensor readings from before,
but that was another motherboard:

hi there,
i have noticed that my hw sensors ouput is changing
in a disturbing way (notice temp0):

make sure the disk itself is OK
before blaming anything higher up.
(e.g., read the entire disk with dd)
openbsd's fsck goes through with no problems.
eventually i managed to get e2fsck through as well:
i made a script to touch

hi there,
i have a usb external disk that spins down grotesquely
soon, 10s of inactivity sends it sleeping. hearing the
disk spin up every time makes me think how soon it will
die if i keep this up for long.

Let me rephrase and remove disklabel from the question:
What would break if slices don't start on a cylinder boundary?
probably nothing if you will use the slices only exclusively
with openbsd. other systems might make different

I wouldn't think that spinning up frequently would shorten
it's life any more than if it stayed spinning. It may be very
irritating from a performance point of view though.
