supported cdrom not found by 8.4 setup

2013-07-26 Thread david coder

i'm trying to install 8.4 on a thinkpad x230, which uses a usb cdrom.
according to the hardward docs, 8.4 supports teac cd-210pu.  that is what i
am using.  the box boots up fine from the installation cd.  but when it comes
to choosing an installation medium, the system doesn't find the device.
idea, anyone?

thx.

 ZFS TRIM support was MFC'd into the 9 branch in June, so it wasn't in 9.1
 but will be available in 9.2:

Hi again,

Specifying the command as follows forces same behavior as 9.1 so all is well 
with a slight mod;

zpool create -o altroot=/ -o cachefile=/var/tmp/zpool.cache zroot mirror 
/dev/gpt/disk0 /dev/gpt/disk1

The change is colored in red.  It was /mnt.

Hi Trond,

Mind you, this is a Live CD env.  I am doing zpool mirror on a system during 
install.

At any rate, in 9.2 beta 1 it shows;

NAME   PROPERTYVALUE   SOURCE
zroot  mountpoint  /mnt/zroot  default

On 9.1 it shows;

NAME   PROPERTYVALUE   SOURCE
zroot  mountpoint  /mnt  local

HTH and hope I am doing something wrong.

Is this repeatable? Does it appear when you reboot and then vanish after

At boot, what does "atacontrol list" say, and what about before and

Don't install ports during installation, try using 8.4 or 9.1BETA1 instead

Hi,

Thanks for the hint. Now I could finish the installation (which takes
like forever (speaking in terms of 2 hours which is pretty strange
given the raw power of this machine)) however after rebooting the box
behaves weird to say the last:

I started out be entering "portsnap fetch". Everything runs fine up to
the point when I see "Verifying snapshot integrity". Then the system
completely comes to a grind. After sending the "portsnap fetch" to the
background (^Z) and entering "top" the machine completely freezes
without any indication as to why.

I've already done a complete hardware diagnosis - everything OK.

Any ideas on how to track this one down?

Thanks much in advance,

You don't actually need to install ports.txz. All it does is populate

documented in the handbook 
(http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports-using.html):


portsnap fetch
portsnap extract




First I thought about the installation medium, so I re-burned the
installation CD ("disc1"), tried the DVD-installation, even installing
over the network - the machine always freezes when it comes to archive
extraction.

For the hardware part:

Re: How to create vlan (four NIC into one) using lagg

2013-07-26 Thread Boris Astardzhiev
Hi Xu Zhe,

If I were you I would first of all check cables. They might be the cause.
Secondly, if cables are good, to me this report very much resembles a PR I
reported a
few weeks ago - http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/179926
Check its set and look at the patch I submitted. It's a pity there's no
response to it.

Greetings,
Boris
