So all we need to direct some of the money we already spend for supporting developers and certain developments to core ZFS developers no longer employed by Sun/Oracle and that way make FreeBSD the primary ZFS development platform for the future. If you have the key developers, the community will follow. Before someone starts argueing... I know, it's not that easy and I don't have a clue how one would do that.

I see a similar behaviour since somwhere shortly before 5.2-BETA on my HP OmniBook 500: If I try to boot with the base station attached (which includes an additional ATA Channel with an CDROM Drive attached), I see the same messages as you see for ata3-master (which is exactly where the CDROM resides). If I remove the CDROM from the base station, so the ATA channel is still there, but with no devices, I have no problems booting. I don't have other devices (like harddisks) to test this behaviour with. Booting with the CDROM worked until well "a few weeks ago", I cannot tell exactly, because I don't use it very often. - Oliver -- | Oliver Brandmueller | Offenbacher Str. 1 | Germany D-14197 Berlin | | Fon +49-172-3130856 | Fax +49-172-3145027 | WWW: http://the.addict.de/ | | Ich bin das Internet.

I can at least say I found the same problem in a snapshot from a few days ago (I think 08 Nov 03) for an install with a Mylex controller, as where the devices were incorrectly referenced as mlx0p1a instead of mlx0s1a and so on.

Well, it did not really help to put a "sleep 20" at the beginnging of my script, it did help anyhow to put a put a "sleep 20 ; " in front of the script execution in the attach line. So I know now, the script actually get's started. Although it's a viable way to have the sleep in the attach line, this is clearly not a good solution: I do not really know, how long the system needs for booting to a stage, when the script can be executed. And I don't really want to wait 15 or 20 seconds everytime I insert the network card before the script actually beghins to work. OK, I get around it, as I usually don't exchange network cards too often. So maybe there should be for devd the possibilty to delay script execution for some time or better until a certain event for the booting case.

Question about devd concept
Hi, I'm currently experimenting with 5-CURRENT on my Notebook an have a question regarding the concept of devd. With 4-STABLE I had pccardd running. Whenever a pccard was inserted I had pccardd starting the corresponding scripts. I have configured devd to do so now (especially for my wavelan pccard). So far everything works, except for one case: When the pccard is already inserted during boot, devd does not recognize the card as newly inserted device (of course, it's already there). So I have currently setup a script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d which starts the script corresponding to the wavelan pccard, if interface wi0 is found during boot. I think this cannot be the considered solution for that problem? What am I missing about the concept of devd?

And making /etc secure in times when you sometimes simply don't want users fetch a userlist from your password file is hard enough. I wouldn't like to deal with two directories in that matter. Having /etc mounted read-only can be OK in many cases, but also mount /usr/local/etc read-only would make life much more difficult as you have to remount it read-write for most simple add-on-software or for fiddling in your local configuration. So I agree not to have security related files in /usr/local. Bye, Oliver To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
