FreeBSD DomU over NetBSD Dom0

2011-01-10 Thread Gaurang Pandya
Hi,

Has anyone managed to get FreeBSD DomU worked over NetBSD Dom0, I am having 
real 

hard time with it. I had created an image as given in 
http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=10268 , the same image works well 
under CentOS 5.5 Dom0, but under NetBSD 5.1 with PAE DOM0 kernel (with some 
customizations to allow PF and ALTQ) , and Xen 3.3.2, its showing following 
issues.

1. FreeBSD DOMU fails to boot and ends up with following error message.
   start_init: trying /sbin/init
   g_vfs_done():ad0s1a[READ(offset=263159808, length=2048)]error = 5
   Jan  6 13:56:20 init: can't exec /bin/sh for /etc/rc: Input/output 
error
   Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:

2. I am frequently getting following message on console
   [XEN] hypervisor wallclock nudged; nudging TOD.

Now I see a solution for second problem but thats for Linux no where I got info 
to fix it under NetBSD.

Here is content of my DomU config file.

kernel = /virt/freebsd-kernel
memory = 164
name = freebsd
disk = [ 'file:/virt/freebsd-fst-ad0s1a-rc-conf.img,hda1,w' ]
extra = boot_verbose=1
extra += ,vfs.root.mountfrom=ufs:/dev/ad0s1a
extra += ,kern.hz=100

I also get this message during DomU boot up, just in case if it helps..

lo0: bpf attached
xbd0: 250MB Virtual Block Device at device/vbd/769 on xenbus0
xbd0: attaching as ad0
GEOM: new disk ad0
WARNING: WITNESS option enabled, expect reduced performance.
Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a

Can any one help me fix these..

Thanks  Regards,

Gaurang.

FreeBSD on ARM (was: WPA Supplicant issue (maybe))

Fine. Is there a FreeBSD for an netbook with an ARM-processor

I asked the freebsd-arm-Mailing List, but as I am an very stupid User
only, my question might have been as such, very as such. Of course I
didn't get an answer.

I tried crosscompiling with one of those files in
/usr/src/sys/arm/conf/ an it ran through without a failure. But I have
no machine to boot that.

So well, there _is_ a Debian GNU/Linux for that machine, it's running
now. I haven't enough experience with Debian for to say it's not
good', but I really would prefer a FreeBSD thereon. So, is there any
documentation within a FreeBSD on a PC which I've missed perhaps?

Google brough me no help either.

FreeBSD is indeed listed as supported OS, but for every hosting plan,
the virtualization is stated as OpenVZ. To my understanding, you
can't run FreeBSD on OpenVZ.

BTW, in the end I decided to go with http://www.nqhost.com/. I read a
lot of bad reviews on them, but their prices are really low and so far
I had no problems with my VPS. I haven't put the machine under any
serious load yet, though.

i'm still on freebsd 7.2 and am wanting to try sqlite.
however, in the ftp-archive.freebsd.org repository i see these two
versions both of which i can install and seem to work:

sqlite3-3.6.11.tbz (this has a non

Re: ZFS + GPT with root on memory stick and mirrored SATA drives

2011-01-10 Thread krad
On 10 January 2011 04:58, Carl Chave c...@chave.us wrote:

 Posting the below for input.  The bulk of this is from a guide that
 Morgan Wesström posted to this list.  Some of it is taken from the
 root on ZFS wiki entries on freebsd.org.  Some from a pjd post here:

 http://blogs.freebsdish.org/pjd/2010/08/06/from-sysinstall-to-zfs-only-configuration/

 And then there's this that Svein Skogen posted to the list:

 I usually (today) set up something similar. I sysinstall FreeBSD onto a
 CF card with the one-big-root method, then create a zpool (on
 spinning-metal-storage) where I create the usr, tmp, var fs'es, tar|tar
 the originals over and fix the mountpoint info on the zfs'es. Then I add
 swap on a zvol (since I don't know how to properly use a kernel dump, I
 don't need swap to store it).

 I'm setting up a new home server and I always agonize over
 partitioning.  So the steps below install the base system with zfs
 root on a usb stick and /tmp /usr /var and swap on mirrored sata
 drives.
 I've tested these steps and everything works but before I press on
 with actually configuring and using the server, does anybody have any
 input on whether I should or shouldn't do it this way?  ZFS best
 practices suggests that having elements of the root filesystem on
 different pools is a bad idea.  So that might be strike 1.

 Memory Stick

 /bin
 /boot
 /dev
 /etc
 /lib
 /libexec
 /media
 /mnt

 /usr/obj
 /usr/ports

 /usr/src
 /var
 /var/log
 /var/audit
 /var/tmp

 Install Procedure (Mostly by Morgan Wesström)
 -
 Select your country and keyboard layout.

 Enter the Fixit environment and use the live filesystem on your DVD.

 Your usb memory stick will most likely be da0 but you can (and should)
 check it with camcontrol devlist before you continue.

 Create a new GPT partitioning scheme:
  # gpart create -s gpt da0

 Create a 64KiB partition for the zfs bootcode starting at LBA 1920:
  # gpart add -b 1920 -s 128 -t freebsd-boot da0

 Create a zfs partition spanning the remainder of the usb memory stick
 and give it a label we can refer to:
  # gpart add -t freebsd-zfs -l FreeBSDonUSB da0

 (The starting LBA for the first partition is there to align the
 partitions to the flash memory's erase block size. This is
 particularly important for the main zfs partition. The main partition
 above will start at exactly 1MiB (LBA 2048) which will align it to any
 erase block size used today. This alignment is also of great
 importance if you use this guide to install FreeBSD to one of the
 newer harddrives using 4096 byte sectors.)

 Install the protective MBR to LBA 0 and the zfs bootcode to the first
 partition:
  # gpart bootcode -b /dist/boot/pmbr -p /dist/boot/gptzfsboot -i 1 da0

 Create /boot/zfs (for zpool.cache) and load the zfs kernel modules:
  # mkdir /boot/zfs
  # kldload /dist/boot/kernel/opensolaris.ko
  # kldload /dist/boot/kernel/zfs.ko

 Create a zfs pool and set its bootfs property:
  # zpool create zrootusb /dev/gpt/FreeBSDonUSB
  # zpool set bootfs=zrootusb zrootusb

 Switch to fletcher4 checksums and turn off access time modifications:
  # zfs set checksum=fletcher4 zrootusb
  # zfs set atime=off zrootusb

 Create zfs mirrored data pool on SATA disks
  # zpool create zdata mirror /dev/ad4 /dev/ad6
  # zfs set canmount=off zdata
  # zfs set mountpoint=/zrootusb zdata
  # zfs set checksum=fletcher4 zdata
  # zfs create zdata/tmp
  # zfs create zdata/usr
  # zfs create zdata/usr/home
  # zfs create zdata/usr/local
  # zfs create zdata/usr/obj
  # zfs create zdata/usr/ports
  # zfs create zdata/usr/ports/distfiles
  # zfs create zdata/usr/ports/packages
  # zfs create zdata/usr/src
  # zfs create zdata/var
  # zfs create zdata/var/log
  # zfs create zdata/var/audit
  # zfs create zdata/var/tmp

 Create swap zvol on zdata pool
  # zfs create -V 5G zdata/swap
  # zfs set org.freebsd:swap=on zdata/swap
  # zfs set checksum=off zdata/swap

 Extract at a minimum, base and the generic kernel:
  # cd /dist/8.1-RELEASE/base
  # DESTDIR=/zrootusb ./install.sh
  # cd ../kernels
  # DESTDIR=/zrootusb ./install.sh generic

 Delete the empty, default kernel directory and move the generic kernel
 into its place:
  # rmdir /zrootusb/boot/kernel
  # mv /zrootusb/boot/GENERIC /zrootusb/boot/kernel

 Make sure the zfs modules are loaded at boot:
  # cat  /zrootusb/boot/loader.conf
   zfs_load=YES
   vfs.root.mountfrom=zfs:zrootusb
   kern.cam.boot_delay=1
  ^d

 Create /etc/rc.conf. Adjust and add to your own needs:
  # cat  /zrootusb/etc/rc.conf
   hostname=sodserve
   sshd_enable=YES
   zfs_enable=YES
   ^d

 Setup your time zone:
  # cp /zrootusb/usr/share/zoneinfo/EST5EDT

 I hear that - but if I want gvim I'll install gvim. What it's doing
 here is installing something I didn't ask for, well actually, it's
 fooling me into giving me something I don't need.

The tricky bit is that there's no gvim port.  There are two choices one
can make when porting software like this:

  * Add a default port that installs the 'full experience', and a second
meta-port that has options suitable for minimalists.

  * Add a default port that is minimal, and a meta-port that can pull in
all the necessary bits for the full-blown user experience.

I agree that it's confusing to remember which port has chosen which
option, but there isn't much a porter (e.g. obrien in this case) can do
to satisfy *both* groups of users.

I'm sorry that you had to install software that you don't really need
and I can help you clean up by saving your installed ports as 'binary
packages' and re-installing just the bits that you _really_ want to have
around.  Other than that, I don't know if there's any way to change the
status quo of the vim ports to be able to satisfy automatically both
types of user needs.

Re: Upgrade path from STABLE to RELEASE

2011-01-10 Thread Mike Clarke
On Friday 07 January 2011, Matthew Seaman wrote:

 Your choices are to backup and reinstall using a release version,
 or to grab the latest -STABLE or -RELEASE sources and upgrade by
 compiling from source.  Note that last option still won't allow you
 to use freebsd-update subsequently: you have to stick with the
 binaries from the install media for that to work.

This has got me puzzled. I appreciate that freebsd-update won't update 
the sources so an attempt to recompile after using freebsd-update to 
change between versions will lead to trouble unless the new sources are 
also downloaded but I'd assumed that freebsd-update would manage to 
update the binaries irrespective of whether they'd been installed as 
binary downloads or compiled locally.

My present system started as 8.0-RELEASE, installed as a binary from 
DVD. I subsequently used csup to upgrade through 8.1-STABLE and 
8.1-RELEASE. I've been using freebsd-update to keep 8.1-RELEASE up to 
date with the latest security patches. I didn't see any error messages 
when I ran freebsd-update so I assumed that everything went fine. Is 
there something I've overlooked and should I recompile from source to 
be safe?

Totally different thing.  The emacs port install GNU Emacs; the xemacs
port installs XEmacs.  They are completely separate projects.  Vim, on
the other hand, is one project, and the GUI is part of it.  There is no
such thing as xvim.  (Also I believe the emacs port installs GNU Emacs
*with a GUI*, the no-GUI version is at emacs-nox11).

It's not as if gvim is something separate. gvim is just a symlink to

It seems a sensible arrangement; desktops already have Xorg,
servers that have no need of it should have WITHOUT_X11 set globally.

FreeBSD is indeed listed as supported OS, but for every hosting plan,
the virtualization is stated as OpenVZ. To my understanding, you
can't run FreeBSD on OpenVZ.


In case anyone else is thinking about using ajkservers, they definitely 
do *not* support FBSD. Their VPS plan page lists 5 Linux distros only.

Installing port x11-toolkits/gtk20 fails mysteriously

2011-01-10 Thread Olaf Seibert
I just updated my ports tree (portsnap fetch; portstap update) a few
hours ago, in order to update webkit. I'm using portmaster to do that.

One of the things it wants to update is gtk-2.20.1_2 to gtk-2.22.1_1.
It builds ok, but then when installing, it ends like this:

The main GNU Emacs port (editors/emacs) does include support for X11,

Its name is certainly slightly confusing now that people have gotten

You must wait that the vim maintainer want to switch to the OPTIONS 
framework. Actually he does not want to do it. He prefers to be alone to 
use the old KNOB system just to do `not like all other people`.


So because you can't make a convenient `make config` you need to read 
the makefile or installing ports-mgmt/lsknobs, run lsknobs in the 
current port path and then set every knob you want in /etc/make.conf


But be careful ! Because make.conf is used by every port you should use 
ports-mgmt/portconf to write only vim knob in /usr/local/etc/ports.conf 
like :


editors/vim: WITHOUT_X11.

Isn't that convenient? :-)

gpart bootcode manually

2011-01-10 Thread David Demelier

Hello,

Because I wanted to crypt a /home partition, I tried to make my 
partition and slice using gpart in the fixit environment.


There is the partition I've made :

Fixit # gpart show ad0
=   63  625142385  ad0  MBR  (298G)
 63  6251423851  freebsd  [active]  (298G)

Fixit # gpart show ad0s1
=0  625142385  ad0s1  BSD  (298G)
  0 63 - free -  (32K)
 631048576  1  freebsd-ufs  (512M)
10486394194304  2  freebsd-swap  (2.0G)
5242943 524288  4  freebsd-ufs  (256M)
5767231 524288  5  freebsd-ufs  (256M)
6291519   20971520  6  freebsd-ufs  (10G)
   27263039  597879346  7  freebsd-ufs  (285G)

To install the boot1, I tried this :

gpart bootcode -b /mnt2/boot/boot1 ad2s1
gpart bootcode -b /mnt2/boot/boot1 ad2

But nothing happens, there is not the / spinning, just a blinking 
underscore. What did I wrong ?

- Image loading facilities.
- Rendering of a GdkPixBuf into various formats:
  drawables (windows, pixmaps), GdkRGB buffers.
- A cache interface

WWW: http://developer.gnome.org/arch/imaging/gdkpixbuf.html

Looking inside that tar file shows the desired file. pkg_add wanted -f
to install it, since it claimed that

pkg_add: package 'gdk-pixbuf-2.22.1' or its older version already installed

Weid. But at least it works now. So thanks!

If you didn't do 'sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16', it should give a 
warning.  But maybe not in that case.


I'd think it's a mistake to install bootcode to a slice, but gpart says 
you can do it provided you use -p and -i.

I must restore the /dev directory on a 6.3 system and

Actually, /dev has been managed by the devfs virtual filesystem driver since
FreeBSD 5 (maybe even before that), so a reboot should repopulate /dev with
the correct data.  There shouldn't be anything that rsync would be able to
sync.

RE: Manage Bind9 through the web, PowerDNS crash my system at startup

2011-01-10 Thread Sayed Nimer
Hello,

My problem (PowerDNS crash my system at startup) have been solved by
correcting the configuration of PowerDNS as follow:

Edit /usr/local/etc/pdns/pdns.conf and be sure that :

daemon=yes

guardian=yes  

 

Thanks with best wishes.

 

Hello,
I was looking for a solution to manage Bind9 DNS server through a web so I
can add/edit zone.
I thought PowerDNS/PowerAdmin would be a good solution for my requirements.
I successfully installed both PowerDNS/PowerAdmin and tested them was
working fine.
When I restart my box I found PowerDNS crash my system giving many errors
can't find mysqlserver.
Any suggestions for the requirement to manage Bind9 through the web, or the
PowerDNS problem.
Thanks and have a nice day.


Have you tried making sure that the MySQL daemon is started /BEFORE/
PowerDNS and Apache is started?



Hello,

Thank you for your reply. I thought you put your hand in my exact problem.

When I start PowerDNS from command line using /usr/local/etc/rc.d/pdns
onestart its running smooth.

To make auto startup I just put this line pdns_enable=YES to the end  of
/etc/rc.conf.

Can you please highlight to me how and where to add the instruction for auto
startup of PowerDNS to be sure it's starting after Mysql.

Thank, and have a nice day.

ls -aR /

will give you a complete listing, assuming you have permissions to all
the directories.  You can add other options if you want to change the
formatting of the output.  You can also do 'find /', the output of

IIRC, worpress is rather lightweight in setting it up, I don't think you
*need* any although you might find some that enhance your Wordpress
experience. It should warn you of any missing php extentions ... (which is
what I think you mean). If you are looking for the actualy php package then
lang/php52 will install that, you can then do lang/php52-extensions to
install what ext's you may need/want.

Thanks for the input krad.  It would be nice to easily switch back and

there may be some tweaking, but you'd be better getting it working with

You might look into the 'tree(1)' command. It's a third party package
that can be installed as:

# pkg_add -r tree

It has lots of flags to list files in various ways. By default it
lists all files in a tree-like format like this:

tree -a /etc
.
|-- X11
|-- aliases - mail/aliases
|-- amd.map
|-- apmd.conf
|-- auth.conf
|-- bluetooth
|   |-- hcsecd.conf
|   |-- hosts
|   `-- protocols
|-- crontab
... and so on...

You can also list files with full paths without indents and such. See
man tree after its installed. Another example:

tree -aif /etc
/etc
/etc/X11
/etc/aliases - mail/aliases
/etc/amd.map
/etc/apmd.conf
/etc/auth.conf
/etc/bluetooth
/etc/bluetooth/hcsecd.conf
/etc/bluetooth/hosts
/etc/bluetooth/protocols

There's also switches for how to handle symbolic links and staying on
one file system, depth limits, file limits, etc.

 A stab in the dark here tells me a slow device ... but what, I do not know.

Yes, apparently, could well be the CDROM drive, it's a laptop format
one (slim). Someone responded to me off-list mentioning the same
problem happened to him. 1mn delay is no big deal on servers being
rebooted every 2 months or so, besides I get to use FreeBSD on them
since they work perfectly bar this delay.

Outlook of LED industry Trend in 2011 / Save 10% by 2011/1/31 / LEDinside Market Intelligence

2011-01-10 Thread LEDinside . com

   According to LEDinside, total revenue of global packagers in 2010
   reached $12.8 billion with an annual growth rate of 57%. In regional
   performance, Korean output value in particular, increased at an
   exceptional rate - the main reason behind the growth was that large
   conglomerates that own television brands such as Samsung and LG
   provided the necessary support to drive the growth of Korea's LED
   industry. Looking forward into 2011, LED-backlit TV and LED lighting
   markets are still the main driving force for the LED demand, and
   LEDinside estimates that there is still substantial room for further
   growth. From the perspective of market supply, LED manufacturers have
   undergone aggressive capacity expansion in 2010.

   Therefore, it is foreseeable that in 2011, the industry will witness
   explosive growth in both supply and demand. Nonetheless, only the
   manufacturers which are able to maintain quality while keeping costs
   low can outperform others in the competitive industry.
