Edit /boot/loader.conf
In Debian GNU/kFreeBSD, is there an equivalent to /boot/loader.conf? Or can I edit grub's config file to pass kernel parameters? I was finally able to install kFreeBSD, but I'm having the same problem as I mentioned in a previous thread - the vm is using up a lot of cpu even when the os is idle (host and guest). I found a section in the FreeBSD handbook about installing FreeBSD as a vm guest, and it mentioned about editing /boot/loader.conf to include the line "kern.hz=100". (This was also mentioned in the other thread as a possible solution.) The only problem is that I checked and there is no loader.conf file in /boot! So should I create one?

Bug#641167: base: Any call to mount returns /dev/ : No such device (fwd)
[Oops, I sent this to the wrong bug address. Resending to the correct one, for the record.] Hi John-Charles, I'm reassigning this bug to kfreebsd-8 on the basis that that's where the following similar bug report was filed: http://bugs.debian.org/593733 I don't think it's the same bug, though. But hopefully this should get it visible by a kFreeBSD user or developer, who can reassign it elsewhere (the mount command, perhaps?) if this is incorrect. -- Geoffrey Thomas http://ldpreload.com geo...@ldpreload.com On Sat, 10 Sep 2011, John-Charles D.

Robert gave you a very good answer in the other thread, so just for the sake of completeness: share=on does not work on kfreebsd but it neither does on FreeBSD. Those are Solaris specific extensions. In Debian (or pure FreeBSD as well), Samba, NFS and iSCSI aren't part of the core system and are not configured that way. However you can still just configure each of those protocols by using a traditional standalone daemon. Just install samba, freebsd-nfs-server or istgt respectively. As Robert says, NFS does not really work too well for the time being. That's a kfreebsd specific problem, indeed. - -- with kind regards, Arno Töll IRC: daemonkeeper on Freenode/OFTC GnuPG Key-ID: 0x9D80F36D -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJOiDXLAAoJEMcrUe6dgPNtmhEP/1uUUu06ZAjTV5hol0Tv+W+X vKwBQc0YUxnbjEGwswrbd8mbjnGvD1XzEd3kIvhs/q88o1M0biGxPA9ZuHxhBhRK A7lKYqaKsxMBbFi30gZ2qclWCJhvfhf3gWE2WJGf4qpVqtRzypAt0YUiggBVBd89 1WRPq/PyrGHjWn/I5u7/IycUe5dhITJq0W5CgzV8S99yiDKKVOmylqRuJDJUKN+2 T9T+WHD3bfav3qJQMp7eB/GEMWkefBXtxgYqLFVd1EyZTMbHmoAeriW2t53YMK6P SDRnKU0mJzr9mf9aEnj7Y3aTd9pRq1momPM6EW2J3MFWZv/YXx5RG7HVIiHdmULc 3vPxXq1WMXRq4KaKOHGycoNwJzqth6EUfD9GaUPcqZrS7MF7fmyoWZkKDAFoibyv WhCmHiEDdAcjZAHHIvLcMBn5SP3OWTMAxHusSvf7XPmcL79ricGRlcHGxoPloW02 cDjb9dEZxQ0IdVel2WLUZduxj1zmU21i5htLRe5M2w4NZCio7CHP6dIO4JNeIBdI lR5QwXHV2PqQiZ1XRq7cUwrphwbmuYxDx0uzlbOMPYBynY+8ZkHUGGdwFxKhGook YmOb6dDsacHwZzx//A9ae6f2Lwpan+jM/05e130T6qfkfs+CbEzBOsb9yAFSn9hC R0lNoHd0/dljvuAeTf4L =Upa/ -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bsd-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Installing Grub on new squeeze vm failed
Did that, and it worked ok; it generated grub.cfg and found both the kernel and module directory.

Sharing ZFS pools
Hi guys, I've read through the kFreeBSD FAQ and searched the mailing lists for an answer to my question but found none, so asking here now. It seems that ZFS for kFreeBSD doesn't support the set sharenfs=on and set sharesmb=on commands. Does this mean I cannot share my ZFS pool to other networked machines in any way? This is my goal. FYI, I read here that I have to use those two commands to share to NFS and SMB: http://www.solarisinternals.com/wiki/index.php/ZFS_Best_Practices_Guide#ZFS_file_service_for_SMB_.28CIFS.29_or_SAMBA Thanks a lot for any help. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bsd-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Sharing ZFS pools
Having read a bit more, it seems I can still share my ZFS pool via Samba by using the normal Samba application, but that it is not possible to share via NFS. Is this correct? Will NFS support be added in future (is there a rough date?)? Otherwise I will consider switching to FreeBSD as I want to use NFS for performance and other reasons.
