Antwort: Re: 6-Release Beta 5: extremely slow installation in VMWare 4.52

2005-09-23 Thread Christoph . Sold




Apologies for Notes Mail - I am forced to use it. After over 24 hours,
sysinstall is still slowly churning against ports/x11.

 Do you have the ability to install BETA4 and then incrementally update
 the source tree? That might be a good way to find out what happened.

I'll try. Since I am on vacation this weekend, and our firewalls
effectively block everything but http/80, it'll have to wait until Monday
to grab a CVS repository at home. So please wait at least until Tuesday for
results.

Also remember the virtual hardware is nearly unusable, because the max IO
rate is at about 20k/s.

All the best
-Christoph

 Hi All,

 After 3 hours, it still extracts scontrib into /usr/src directory.
 On tty 3, top tells cpio ist in vlruwk state for ages.
 CPU states: 0.1% user, 0.0% nice, 0.4% system, 0.8 interrupt, 99.5% idle.

 Installing Beta 4 went flawlessly, so I guess some filesystem change
 since then is the culprit.

We mostly have reports on VMWare 5, not 4, so given those reports I'm
surprised that it works at all =-)  I can't think of anything that has
changed that would be a smoking gun.  In fact, debugging was removed
from BETA5, so it _should_ go faster, not slower.  Do you have the

Unfortunately, our corporate firewall blocks anything but http/port80,
https/port443. Thus, neither CVS nor CVSup are an option. in addition, the
install is still running after 24 hours. At this time, the full install churns
slowly against ports/x11-themes.

I'll grab a cvs repository at home, but do not expect results before Tuesday,
since I'm on vacation this weekend.

One more hint: calcru: runtime went backwards... pops up once or twice for
each file.

Additional information: the slowdown gets triggered only by a FULL install. A
Developer install runs as long as BETA 4. This contradicts my initial opinion,
as the filesystem is clearly the same for both Developer an Full installs.

4.8-S crashes during boot in USB code

2003-04-02 Thread Christoph Sold
Hi List,

my FreeBSD-4.8-Stable custom kernel crashes in USB code during boot. It 
does not matter if any USB device is connected. I checked all 
combinations of no, one, or two devices connected out of my collection 
(USB memory stick, Sony clie handheld). The crash is reproducible at the 
same location in the USB driver.

A generic kernel does not crash, but does not detect the Clie.

Enclosed are a DDB stack trace (stacktrace.txt), my machine-specific 
config file (KISTE), as well as dmesg output from the generic kernel 
(dmesg.boot.txt).

Any hints?

Thanks in advance

Jordan, here is another patch which replaces the two I sent earlier.  This

as well.  This code only gets called when no atalkd.conf file exists.  If
you or Christoph could test this code, and let me know if it works, I will
add it to the port.  I've tested things here, and it works for me,

I then checked /usr/local/etc/atalkd.conf and saw that it was all
simply commented out examples.  I have only one interface, rl0, and
according to the comments it should have been auto-discovered, but just
on a lark I tried adding it to atalkd.conf to see if it had any
effect.  It did!  All the core dumps have gone away.

Now I'm on to my second problem.  I've put /usr (just that, on a line
by itself) into /usr/local/etc/AppleVolumes.default and usr (but
with no leading slash) shows up in the volumes menu when I go to mount
it over AFP under MacOS X.  If I then select this, the server disconnects
immediately and I get:

afpd[pid]: dsi_stream_read(0): No such file or directory

On the FreeBSD machine's console.  Could it be because it's exporting
usr vs /usr?  If so, why would it do that when I used /usr in
the AppleVolumes.default file?

 I'm not sure which system you're talking about here.  We call it
 IPFILTER in FreeBSD, and it's in the kernel source tree.  If the worst
 comes to the worst, we can move it to the ports, where you would be
 correct, but I'm personally confident that we'll come to a
 clarification which will leave it where it is.

Greg is right, I stand corrected. Sorry about the confusion.

 This is really quite sad as IPFilter really is a nice piece of software.

Since Darren Reed changed the Licens  for non-release bugfix test
versions only, and openly states the license for release versions
_will_not_change_, I would prefer to have IPF in the tree, even though I
use ipfw instead.

Re: Kernel Build Failure in kern/subr_disk.c

 i did.  it does not answer the question.

Well, then read again. Possible causes are
- you downloaded the wrong sources (there are lots of kernel versions on
FreeBSD)
- your kernel sources were not in sync with your system (i.e. it is not
possible to build 4.3-Release with a 2.x world)

You may glimpse at
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/handbook/cutting-edge.html
to learn how to get the relevant sources, and at
http://www.de.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
to learn how to conifgure and compile a kernel.

If this still does not get you up to speed, please include some basic
information (output of uname -a, what did you download, which commands
did you use, what ws the exact error message).

Re: Urgent; stable problem on Intel MB

 I have cvsup'd daily since Feb1 and recompiled.  I cannot get a successful
 boot out of any kernel.  GENERIC, MYKERNEL, anything.
 Mergemaster has been done.
 
 I have 2 different servers.. one ASUS, one Intel 440bx.  Asus builds and
 boots fine, however the Intel gets 'Fatal trap 12 caught while in kernel
 mode'.  Seeing how another Intel user had the same problem it must be an
 issue.
 
 Could someone please advise?  I have backups and I am currently booting from
 kernel.backup (thank the good man above).
 
 I really wish I could have a successful boot :(

Sorry, without facts a solution will be impossible. If your machine
crashed during compiles, most likely you got faulty hardware. OTOH, it
is possible to compile a kernel without needed hardware support.

Have a look at   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html  
before asking again. it tells what to ask for, too.

Re: Drive not coming up

 Hi there.
 
 I'm running the 3.X stable tree.
 
 I added another hard drive, and went to /stand/sysinstall to install the
 drive.
 
 That all worked fine, I used DiskLabel to set my mount point to /backup
 
 It all works fine, until I reboot.  When I reboot the drive is not mounted,
 and I have to use DiskLabel again in order to get the drive to show up.
 
 I don't lose any data in the process, it's just an inconvienience.
 
 Another thing to note is that  the drive is not listing in /etc/fstab
 
 Here is my /etc/fstab# DeviceMountpoint  FStype
 Options DumpPass#
 /dev/da0s1b noneswapsw  0   0
 /dev/da0s1a /   ufs rw  1   1
 /dev/da0s1f /usrufs rw  2   2
 /dev/da0s1e /varufs rw  2   2
 proc/proc   procfs  rw  0   0

Sysinstall cannot add the entry for your new drive automtically.
Assuming you added a second SCSI disk with just one big partition,
inserting this line into fstab will help:

/dev/da1s0e /new/mount/pointufs rw  2   2

Re: Fatal trap 12 during boot

2001-02-16 Thread Christoph Sold

[Note: not forwarded to list because of stuid guess. No real answer
here.]

Stupid guess: your acd0: CDROM MATSHITA CR-176 does things it should
better not.

Just for fun, disconnect the gizmo (or build a kernel without ATAPI),
then try again.

 Dear Sirs,
 
 Today I cvsup:ed 4.2-STABLE and built a new kernel. The new kernel
 receives a "Fatal trap 12" where it usually prints "Waiting 3 seconds
 for SCSI devices to settle".
 
 Does anybody have any hints about what's wrong? Dmesg output and
 config file is attached.
 
 Cheers,

 Doesn't rc.shutdown call /usr/local/etc/rc.d/*.sh with a "stop"
 argument? Put your custom shutdown procedures there.
 rc.local is deprecated.

FreeBSD-Stable as of Sept 7 does not call /usr/local/etc/rc.d/...:

 Already have done.
 
 To repeat, when I 'su -m' to keep my enviroment it works fine, using the
 per user install in my home directory. Using the same files as a normal
 user does not work (and yes, I've chown/chmodded them).
 
 Linux emulation works fine in general, I use linux netscape for the
 plugins.

I just changed the #!-line to read #!/usr/local/bin/bash instead of
#!/bin/sh
in Suns installuser script. They assume bash is installed as /bin/sh.
After
changing the shell line, everything works as expected.
