Hi: I use a script to generate images for the compact flash disks I use in my Soekris net4801 devices.
I recently switched to 1.0 GB SanDisk CF. I can generate images no problem, but at boot time, we see this warning: > Automatic boot in progress: starting file system checks. > /dev/rwd0a: file system is clean; not checking > /dev/rwd0d: file system is clean; not checking > Warning: inode blocks/cyl group (16) >= data blocks (12) in last > cylinder group. This implies 384 sector(s) cannot be allocated. > Warning: inode blocks/cyl group (16) >= data blocks (12) in last > cylinder group. This implies 384 sector(s) cannot be allocated. I don't know what this means. Here is output from disklabel for the device in question: > Disk: wd0 geometry: 993/32/63 [2001888 Sectors] > Offset: 0 Signature: 0xAA55 > Starting Ending LBA Info: > #: id C H S - C H S [ start: size ] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > 0: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused > 1: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused > 2: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused > *3: A6 0 1 1 - 992 31 63 [ 63: 2001825 ] OpenBSD > # disklabel wd0 > # Inside MBR partition 3: type A6 start 63 size 2001825 > # /dev/rwd0c: > type: ESDI > disk: > label: sd1024 > flags: > bytes/sector: 512 > sectors/track: 63 > tracks/cylinder: 32 > sectors/cylinder: 2016 > cylinders: 993 > total sectors: 2001888 > rpm: 3600 > interleave: 1 > trackskew: 0 > cylinderskew: 0 > headswitch: 0 # microseconds > track-to-track seek: 0 # microseconds > drivedata: 0 > > 5 partitions: > # size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg] > a: 100737 63 4.2BSD 1024 8192 49 # Cyl 0*- 49 > b: 1 100800 swap # Cyl 50 - > 50* > c: 2001888 0 unused 0 0 # Cyl 0 - 992 > d: 510048 102816 4.2BSD 1024 8192 86 # Cyl 51 - 303 > e: 1389024 612864 4.2BSD 1024 8192 86 # Cyl 304 - 992 To my eye, everything looks kosher. The device seems to work just fine, but before I deploy this I would like to know exactly what is going on here. Any ideas? Thanks, -Stephen-
