  Is your pccard a 32 bit (CardBus) or a 16 bit (PCMCIA) card?
 FreeBSD only currently supports 16 bit pccards. 5.0 is supposed to

Bootable cdroms are made during the ISO mastering stage.  If your using
software like mkisofs to convert a directory tree into an ISO image, then
the mastering software is responceable for making a bootable image.  For
example, with mkisofs, you want to look at the -b flag.

 if it isnt, would it be safe to rm these July 28th dated libraries out of
 /usr/lib ?

The *_p.a files are profiled libraries that can be safely removed from the
system.

librsaUSA.*, and libRSAglue.* have been integrated into the OpenSSL
distribution since the RSA patent has expired.  You may remove these
libraries if you have no ports that are still depending on them. Just
rebuild all ports that depend on OpenSSL.

Re: New KERNCONF option

2001-03-15 Thread The Babbler


Yes, I'm sure that's it.  Another problem with coming from the Linux
world and getting used to the new way of doing things.

The handbook suggested that the easiest way to cvsup was to use

# pkg_add -f \
 
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/development/CVSup/cvsupit.tgz

So I did that.  It had choices for what to load; I was only having
trouble with kernel stuff (devices and networking), so I only checked
that.  Seemed quite logical, and the handbook doesn't say you can't.

In fact the section of the handbook at 

http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/synching.html

says quite explicitly that you can get only the parts you want.


Might be a good clarification for the handbook that though it's a nice
interface one isn't allowed to actually choose any old options after
bringing it up.

Anyway, I don't doubt that this is the problem.  Thanks.

Of course, if I'm going to do *that* then I probably want to take that
"back everything up" a little more seriously.  This is going to do like
an entire system upgrade, right?  Will it know how to preserve all the
/etc files and all that that I've customized?

I'm thinking that I'm walking into something a bit more complex than I
had understood . . .

Am I reading the wrong section of the handbook?
Should I be reading something else entirely?

 Wait a minute here.  Are you saying you only cvsup'd the kernel?  You
 aren't allowed to do that.  You must update all of your src tree at
 once, nothing else is supported.  This would certaintly go a long way

a full system upgrade (make world, as it's often called) isn't nearly as hard
with freebsd as it often is in the linux world.

first, use cvsup to download the most recent version of -STABLE, as documented
in http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/synching.html, and then carefully follow
the directions in http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/makeworld.html.

it's really pretty easy.

your current setup in /etc will be left alone.  after you build and install
world, you must run mergemaster, which is a script that will automate the
process of updating the files in /etc.  since you definately have some files
in /etc that you have modified, this is not completely automated, but it walks
you through it pretty well.

good luck.

The problem there is actually that it's unclear about what constitues a
"part".  In short the parts in question are src, doc, www, and ports
(of which you can only update pieces, say only English and your native
language if not English).  Personaly there's nothing at all complicated
about using the cvsup files in /usr/shared/examples/cvsup so I always
use those.

 Am I reading the wrong section of the handbook?

That's the right section of the handbook, though the make world section
isn't really very current.

 Should I be reading something else entirely?

Once you update all of /usr/src you can and are expected to read
/usr/src/UPDATING which lists the commands you should execute to upgrade
your world and kernel.

C++ problem in sys/socket.h

2001-03-15 Thread Rasmus Kaj


I got a mail from bento about a compiler problem in one of my ports,
see [1], but I can't reproduce it on any of my -STABLE machines (which
are about a month old).

It seems that something has broken /usr/include/sys/socket.h for C++
somewhere between my last update (which is 1.39.2.3) and bento's, both
in -STABLE and -CURRENT.  Should it be fixed or is there a workaround?

I did check through cvsweb, and sys/socket.h has some changes, but I
don't see which of them is so harmful ...

Please cc any answers to me, as I lag a bit on the stabe list ...

Re: 4.3-BETA2, name resolution problem?

 that it's trying to resolve my FQ hostname via DNS with a type ''

i saw this with sendmail when i bumped up to 4.3R. the fix there was to
recompile sendmail without IPv6. however telnet and others worked the way
the were supposed to.

  Suffice it to say that the installation croaks at this point.  Now
  here's the interesting bit: This only happens reliably if I enable
  soft updates on the root partition.  Any real correlation?  I have no
  idea.  Anyway, JFYI.  If I can start reproducing it in other ways,
  I'll let you know whether I've started to consider it a release
  show-stopper bug or not.
 
 Here's a possible "me too".  I haven't reported this before
 because (a) da2 is my backup Fujitsu MO drive, and it does do
 odd things occasionally, and (b) the backup disk is currently
 full and I haven't thrown the requisite round-tuit at it.
 
 If this actually represents a problem, and I can help with
 debugging it, please just say what you need...
 
 Following are a chunk of kernel messages from /var/log/messages
 and the contents of /var/run/dmesg.boot.  The system is:

About a month ago I had this problem too.  At first it was infrequent 
becoming much worse later.  A scan by the the Adaptec disk scan utility 
showed me that the disk had gone bad.
