You also need to grab kernel.gz.boot from the boot.flp image. Then you can do a: cat kernel.gz.boot kernel.gz.aa kernel.gz.ab > kernel.gz Take a look at src/release/scripts/split-file.sh to see how these files are generated. Useful if you want to do an install with a custom kernel, without building a whole release. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Re: Reading rc.conf from C programs?

You could perhaps copy the way that "The Fish" does it?
Take a look at "ports/sysutils/thefish".
The "parser.c" code appears to read /etc/{,defaults/}rc.conf and place
all the options into a linked list.

Install the pvm port (ports/net/pvm) on the machines.
I've played around with this a bit, and it's quite fun to watch.
Check out the X11 fractal demo ("xep").
There's also a port of povray (ports/graphics/pvmpov) which uses PVM
to distribute it's processing.

quota and NFS
Who do I prod to get someone to take a look at bin/12939 and bin/6183? I've been using both patches now since FreeBSD 4.0 and they make life a lot more pleasant when using quota on a machine with NFS mounts. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
Re: Can anyone recommend a good clustering software?
A quick search on http://www.google.com/ returned: http://www.sc.cs.tu-bs.de/pare/: "PaRe is an educational project at the Technical University Braunschweig to set up a Beowulf-class supercomputer built from commodity components. It starts from early hardware and design decisions and ends in building and profiling some small parallelized applications." When talking about "clustering", you should mention whether it's related to parallel computing or fail-over/high-availability. For more information on Beowulf-style clusters, take a look at: http://www.beowulf.org/ For a Beowulf-style cluster with a FreeBSD spin on it: http://acme.ecn.purdue.edu/ I've set up a PVM-based cluster on FreeBSD. It's pretty straight forward: Basically, it's just a FreeBSD base install and the PVM package (which is in the ports collection). A PVM enabled povray is also available in the ports collection, but I've not had a chance to play with it yet.
