The guy was having trouble getting his Floppies working. So, if he needs to format it to get it to work, then he needs to format it. Regardless of how you read the text. He seemed to be wasting more time trying to write floppies with defects than he would have by running the format. It formats out to 1,457,644 bytes. That is what he needs. He was seeing less than that, until later.

The Smart Array driver (ciss) works great in logging a drive failure. But I have found no kernel or port tools to discover a failure of a redundant supply.

If you had bothered to read the section you quoted you would see that the _ONLY_ reason you are told to format the floppy is to test it to make sure it is free of defects. rawrite dumps a raw disk image to the floppy and could care less what format is on the disk when you run it.

"The Complete FreeBSD": errata and addenda
The trouble with books is that you can't update them the way you can a web page or any other online documentation. The result is that most leading edge computer books are out of date almost before they are printed. Unfortunately, The Complete FreeBSD, published by O'Reilly, is no exception. Inevitably, a number of bugs and changes have surfaced. "The Complete FreeBSD" has been through a total of five editions, including its predecessor "Installing and Running FreeBSD". Two of these have been reprinted with corrections. I maintain a series of errata pages. Start at http://www.lemis.com/errata-4.html to find out how to get the errata information.

How to get best results from FreeBSD-questions
How to get the best results from FreeBSD questions. === Last update $Date: 2003/03/09 22:09:31 $ This is a regular posting to the FreeBSD questions mailing list. If you got it in answer to a message you sent, it means that the sender thinks that at least one of the following things was wrong with your message: - You left out a subject line, or the subject line was not appropriate. - You formatted it in such a way that it was difficult to read. - You asked more than one unrelated question in one message. - You sent out a message with an incorrect date, time or time zone. - You sent out the same message more than once. - You sent an 'unsubscribe' message to FreeBSD-questions. If you have done any of these things, there is a good chance that you will get more than one copy of this message from different people. Read on, and your next message will be more successful. This document is also available on the web at http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. = Contents: I:Introduction II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions III: Should I ask -questions, -newbies or -hackers? IV: How to submit a question to FreeBSD-questions V:How to answer a question to FreeBSD-questions I: Introduction === This is a regular posting aimed to help both those seeking advice from FreeBSD-questions (the "newcomers"), and also those who answer the questions (the "hackers"). Note that the term "hacker" has nothing to do with breaking into other people's computers. The correct term for the latter activity is "cracker", but the popular press hasn't found out yet. The FreeBSD hackers disapprove strongly of cracking security, and have nothing to do with it. In the past, there has been some friction which stems from the different viewpoints of the two groups. The newcomers accused the hackers of being arrogant, stuck-up, and unhelpful, while the hackers accused the newcomers of being stupid, unable to read plain English, and expecting everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Of course, there's an element of truth in both these claims, but for the most part these viewpoints come from a sense of frustration. In this document, I'd like to do something to relieve this frustration and help everybody get better results from FreeBSD-questions. In the following section, I recommend how to submit a question; after that, we'll look at how to answer one. II: How to unsubscribe from FreeBSD-questions == When you subscribed to FreeBSD-questions, you got a welcome message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] In this message, amongst other things, it told you how to unsubscribe. Here's a typical message: Welcome to the freebsd-questions mailing list! If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" with the following command in the body of your email message: unsubscribe freebsd-questions Greg Lehey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it: FREEBSD-QUESTIONS User questions This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical. Normally, unsubscribing is even simpler than the message suggests: you don't need to specify your mail ID unless it is different from the one which you specified when you subscribed. If Majordomo replies and tells you (incorrectly) that you're not on the list, this may mean one of two things: 1. You have changed your mail ID since you subscribed. That's where keeping the original message from majordomo comes in handy. For example, the sample message above shows my mail ID as [EMAIL PROTECTED] Since then, I have changed it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If I were to try to remove [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the list, it would fail: I would have to specify the name with which I joined. 2. You're subscribed to a mailing list which is subscribed to FreeBSD-questions. If that's the case, you'll have to figure out which one it is and get your name taken off that one. If you're not sure which one it might be, check the headers of the messages you receive from freebsd-questions: maybe there's a clue there. If you've done all this, and you still can't figure out what's going on, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED], and he will sort things out for you. Don't send a message to FreeBSD-questions: they can't help you.

It's my only disk media. I built an array in BIOS then installed FreeBSD on it. When installing FreeBSD-5, I think I had to use the 3rd floppy image which had the "amr" driver on it, as I don't believe it was built into the kernel on the boot/root floppies. After install, I added "amr" to my kernel def and rebuilt. I see now my GENERIC file has "amr" in it. Perhaps I'm confused or maybe it didn't have it back then. So if you've already got FreeBSD installed make sure it has the "amr" device built in. If you're installing from scratch, check the 3rd floppy for stealth drivers.

In this example I was trying to install "fluxspace". I faced the same problem with "mutt" and a couple of other ports. "libungif" is specific for the above example, it changes from port to port.

RE: Problems installing to AMI MegaRAID array
If it's a zero channel RAID controller, it's probably not supported. I know the Mylex Zero channel ones were very popular in this generation of machine so that's the first thing I'd check. If the SCSI cable to your array hooks up to the onboard controller, its zero channel (or something equally unsupported) and you're best bet is to get a full RAID controller (like the AcceleRAID 250 on ebay for $60US). The Symbios BIOS is likely coming from the onboard controller which is disabled when you add the RPX module.

I've been able to get into the MegaRAID bios setup and configure an initialize a RAID volume, but FBSD can't find it. I've installed FBSD on several RAID systems before, so I didn't think it would be a problem. But the GENERIC kernel doesn't seem to find the controller. It sees the Symbios Logic SCSI controller, the DAT & CD-ROM, but none of the drives or logical disks. If I remove the RPX module from the mainboard (a rather simple card with battery, flash and a couple of DIMMs & sundry other minor chips) I no longer get the AMI MegaRAID BIOS option (makes sense) and each drive spins and shows up during the Symbios Logic init on boot. The RPX board doesn't have any chips that are labelled AMI (or LSI, for that matter), so I don't know how to determine the actual RAID chipset. Anyone have any suggestions as to making this work?

No. You don't "format" the floppy when building the boot disk(s). You use the tools supplied to write the raw image file (including the formatting) to the disk.

On what system did you do the format? If it was on a Microsoft system, is it possible that system files were copied to the floppy as part of the format process. I think that is the /s flag, but it has been so long, I may remember wrong. Most of those files are "hidden". Otherwise, if you formatted it to 1.44MG and nothing else was put on the disk, then it must have had bad sectors which were excluded. That could happen either on the MS system or on the FreeBSD system.

Following up to myself: I looked at the X logs when I booted with no config file, and learned that it probed the trackpoint as /dev/psm0, so when I stuck this into the InputDevice section for Device, it worked fine. Yay! However, I now have a problem with my usb mouse, which I'm sure is the result of my ignorance of how the /dev system works. I plug in a usb mouse, and I get a kernel message identifying it as ums0, 3 buttons and Z dir (so clearly it knows it's a mouse and some USB thing is working). At the same time, it reports moused: unable to open /dev/ums0: no such file or directory. What do I need to get this working, and will I need to add this to the X config file as well? I do find it a little odd in that in my other FreeBSD laptop (4.9), I use /dev/mouse in my X config, and both the trackpoint, and any USB mouse I plug in, work fine with no effort on my part. Thanks.

Some findings I have made recently included taking a working ssh from a bsd4.9 release box, copying it to the one that wasnt working, including the config. That ssh also had the problem after copying. This seems to indicate either the config has issues(but I copied that as well) or a runtime library conflict...

Yes, NFS lets you share files without worrying about whether the local filesystem is HFS+, UFS, or anything else.

UFS is, but the performance is absolutely terrible. For example, loading 10,000 message files from Leafnode takes about three seconds when the store is on HFS+, and about nine minutes when the store is on UFS. (2xG5, 1.5GB ram, 250GB SATA) It's supposed to be getting better next version. > I've read about the hfs and hfs+ port but I doesn't want to take a risk.

Run everything on the server as native UFS (or whatever FreeBSD calls it). Export as NFS or CIFS as you please. > You see I'm in a state of confusion.. Pretend the OS X box is just another Unix client. There's no need to provide any special accommodation for it from the server side. For the OS X box itself, use HFS+. You can set up multiple partitions if you like, I use one for the system, one for apps, and one for user home and data storage. See fink and darwinports for open source port/packaging systems.

X config problems on T41p
I'm running FreeBSD 5.2.1 on a ThinkPad T41p. I'm using XFree86 4.4.0, installed from the binaries on the XFree site (the video card, an ATI Radeon FireGL T2, was apparently not supported with the radeon driver shipped with 4.3). Initially, X was working fine, with no config file at all, yet I've run into problems trying to use a config file. I generated one with XFree86 -configure, but this set the driver to "ati", instead of to "radeon" which seems from its docs to be the one supporting my card. In any case, whether with the driver as "ati" or as "radeon", the trackpoint doesn't function at all, nor does the touchpad (which I disabled in the BIOS anyway, as some Web pages said this was necessary to use the third button and I don't like the touchpad anyway). Everything else seems to be OK but I can't get anywhere without any pointer. The InputDevice section maps the Device as /dev/sysmouse, which I thought is correct; there's no /dev/mouse. The several Web pages about FreeBSD on a T40 or T41 don't say anything helpful; this doesn't seem to be a problem for these users (the T41 guy did say that no config file was needed, but my problem is I _want_ to use one to set other details).

License for vmware 3 (emulators/vmware3)
Hello, I need to use vmware under FreeBSD. Since vmware4 isn't ported yet (although I own I license for that version...), I need to use vmware3. I can't buy any license for that version, so I have to use evaluation licenses. The problem is that I don't think it's possible anymore to request such a license for this old version of vmware... Is there a FreeBSD "official" answer or a legal way of solving that problem ? I hope I won't have to do with a cracked serial number, even if it is so easy to find ! One more question : are there plans for vmware4 to be ported to FreeBSD ? I'm sure that many people would *really* apreciate !

Kernel panic while boot, possibilities to get box up again
Hello, we've a FreeBSD 5.1 box at a hosting company. As we need a lot more maxsockets and resources, I added the following lines to /boot/loader.conf: kern.ipc.maxsockets="64" kern.maxusers="4096" kern.ipc.nmbclusters="12" Some would say, these are somewhat crazy values for this options, but be sure, we will need them sooner or later, and I only want to reboot once. ;) And I tested them on a local machine here, and it worked. Then I rebootet. But the box didn't answer anymore after that, so I wrote the support what's up. Support is: > Me is: Me --- Mail exchange begin --- > I've tried rebooting your machine several times again and tried to enter as Single User Mode. The problem still persist as it reboots > after this line, "panic: Unable to alloc kernal virtual memory". Me: I tried to rebuild the same behavior. So I configured a local testserver with the same loader.conf like I did with the server at your Me: datacenter, but it boots without problems. Only difference is, that my is running 5.2.1 instead of 5.1 > It seems that we can't access your machine to even look at the /boot/loader.conf file.

Me: I'm very sorry for the trouble. I didn't update to 5.2.1 to save us such headaches. I'm not sure, but I think I should update it Me: the next time. > Unfortunately since we are able to even login as single user mode, we cannot save any data on your box Me: Sure, but this was not what I meant. I mean: When you make a new install, you've the possibility to use the existing partitions, and Me: just delete and recreate the / mountpoint. This works easy and it resets the full system, as / will be wiped, but without any user- Me: data loss, as all other (/usr, /home) remain untouched. I did this several times. Me: As the partition is aleady there, simply "skip" the Fdisk tool with Q and in the following Disklabel Editor only remove and recreate Me: the mountpoint that represents /. For the other just set the mount points for each of them with M. Me: I'm sure you're familiar with your mount points and sizes you give your servers, so you know which one represents /. The /home Me: is the biggest one with around 60gig, the /usr has around 7gig. Me: After that he wipes /, checks the other filesystems and installs into a clean /. Me: I hope this will also help you with further system resets, others could need. ;-) If you've any questions concerning these steps, Me: let me know. We would have to reupload a lot of data, if all would be blown away and I don't hope it, but something like this Me: seems to occour somewhat more than once.

FTP (not anonymous) logins fail
I have FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p3 installed on my system. For testing purposes, I have been temporarily suspending my ipfw firewall, then reenabling it when I take a break from testing. I have enabled ftp (IPV4 only) in inetd.conf. FTP connections and authentication from the localhost to itself always work. FTP connections made from the outside work, but authentication always fails. The user in question has tcsh as his shell, which is listed in /etc/shells. The user is NOT listed in /etc/ftpusers. I have not changed anything in PAM (which I still don't understand how to configure yet). The full path of the user's home directory is accessible to them. I have not done anything with groups. Does a user have to be in a magic "ftpusers" group in order to authenticate from the outside? My question for the group is: What else do I need to do to enable FTP logins for normal users (i.e., I don't want anonymous FTP) out-of-the-box? I could install ProFTP, but would like to try to use the default FTPd that comes with FreeBSD. I suspect that PAM is the reason why my authentications from the outside always fail, but authentications from localhost always succeed. Is PAM out-of-the-box set to deny all outside FTP connections? If so, what modifications to /etc/pam.d/ftpd do I need to make to allow FTP authentication from the outside to work? But, if you suspect something other than PAM, don't let me send you down the wrong path... Many thanks to anyone that can offer help. I've spent 4 days on this and combed google and the archives of this listserv for the answer, but have come up empty.

Correct. Just run a make install from perl5.8 directory and it will
install it to a new location without interfering with the "base" install
of perl. Is it really necessary to upgrade ? There is nothing in ports
that I know of that will not work with perl5.6
There is no need to remove the 5.6 version. The installation will add
some information to your /etc/make.conf as well as make other changes
when you run use.perl port which will tell any future installations that
require perl which version to use. If you have to remove perl then cd
into /usr/local/lib/perl5 and remove the 5.6 directory as well as the
one under site_perl but not recommended.
Cheers,

5.2-current does not allow login and panics with modified memory after free
Hello!
I am trying to run 5.2-CURRENT (cvsupped and rebuild apr 1) on the following
server:
Supermicro DPE-G2 motherboard
DUAL XEON 2.66Ghz (HT enabled)
2GB RAM
4 SATA SEAGTE 120GB DRIVES
3WARE 8506-4LP SATA RAID5 CONTROLLER
SATA drivers are joint into a single RAID5 array which is seens
as twe0.
3dm is installed.
The box ran half a day and a night just fine. After that it was shutdown
correctly and after a couple of hours turned on.
I have heared (leds do not work due to connector incompatibility with
supermicro case) high hdd activity for some time, but all filesysrems
were marked as clean. I tried to login but i could not because after i
types 'root' at the login nothing happened at all. Just a blinking cursor.
However, the box was not hanging - screensaver appeared after some
time and i can type on tty and also swicth vttys and use scroll lock to
scroll
boot messages. 3DM did not respond via web. So, i waited 4 hours and
rebooted.
After reboot i can logon but after several requests to RAID status via
web (3dm) i got the following on the console:
twe0: TWEIO_GET_PARAM failed for 0x402/0x3/16
Then after a minute or two the following happened:
Memory modified after free 0x788f400(508) val=20202020 @ 0xe788f400
panic: Most recently used by devbuf
at line 128 in file /usr/src/sys/udm_dbg.c
cpu=0;
Debugger ("panic")
Stopped at Debugger +0.46: xchgl %ebx, in_Debugger.0
and i typed 'c' in debugger:
the system started to shutdown and here is what i saw:
twe0: failed to delete unit 0
stray irq9
Is this all a twe driver problem or general 5.2-CURRENT instability?
Any ideas what happened in two cases and how to avoid it or/and
solve the problems?

You can tell the portupgrade tools the path relative to /usr/ports -- so to upgrade from perl-5.6.1 to perl-5.8.2 you would do: # pkg_deinstall -f lang/perl5 # portinstall lang/perl5.8 and then all the 'use.perl port' stuff, as well as re-installing any perl modules (ie. anything that installed files under /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.6.1 or /usr/local/lib/perl5/site-perl/5.6.1) Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

mplayer with RTC support
Hi :)
I'm having a problem with mplayer when compiled with RTC.
When I want to view a video, it just hangs mplayer for ever until I "CTRL-C"
which gives me:
MPlayer interrupted by signal 2 in module: sleep_rtc
I try launching mplayer as root --> same problem; I chmod /dev/rtc to 777 -->
same problem.
Note that seeing a video with the -nortc option passed to mplayer works fine.
I run FreeBSD-5.2.1-p3.
Here are some output you might need in helping me resolve this issue (note
that linux emulation is built in the kernel).

OSX and Freebsd : what could be a good setup
I've purchased a new emac with OSX 10.3. It's soon to arrive and so I'm thinking about a good way of interacting the emac - which will be my main desktop - with my 5.2.1 server. Until now I used a windows laptop with xp and the files where shared with samba. So I thought that using an unixoid os would bring some advantages :-) I think that I'll use hfs+ on the emac. I've read about the hfs and hfs+ port but I doesn't want to take a risk. The freebsd server should act as mail and news-server and also as file server. Do I have to put the data on a fat32-slice? If I setup a nfs-mount on the freebsd server and copy data from OSX to it, is the data readable from Freebsd without the hfs port? You see I'm in a state of confusion.. Thanks in advance.

Critical mmap failure?
I've a couple of systems running FreeBSD 4.9; they all share /usr and anything below by nfs. There are (at less) two applications that do not run or do not run correctly on one distinguished system, but correctly on each other machine. One application is mozilla; it stops shortly after invocation with the following error message: INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: JavaPluginFactory5 init - no agent? System error?:: Cannot allocate memory Analyzing the problem with "truss" shows an error while mozilla calls "mmap": mmap(0xbfaef000,65536,0x3,0x400,-1,0x0) ERR#12 'Cannot allocate memory' mmap(0xbfade000,65536,0x3,0x400,-1,0x0) ERR#12 'Cannot allocate memory' On the other systems, there are no errors: mmap(0xbfaef000,65536,0x3,0x400,-1,0x0) = -1079054336 (0xbfaef000) mmap(0xbfade000,65536,0x3,0x400,-1,0x0) = -1079123968 (0xbfade000) * Other "mmap" calls that do not require MAP_STACK (0x400) do not lead to errors anywhere. * All kernels are compiled with -DVM_STACK since this is default on i386. * The value of the variable vm.max_proc_mmap is not higher on any of the systems which do well than on the problematic one. * The same holds for resource limits. * The machines in question are all DELL PowerEdge 2650, three with RAID controllers, one without. The main difference in hardware is that the system on wich the error occurs has 4 GB of memory, the others 2 GB. There are no significant differences in the kernel configuration files except driver entries for RAID or not. Any idea that may help is very welcome, since the other application that fails is a commercial linux binary calling "linux mmap" frequently and producing wrong data (possibly the return code of "mmap" isn't checked). This application is very important for us, and does not do anything than reading and writing data and calling "mmap".
