Re: O/S - System upgrade with CVS (Jez Hancock)

2003-06-07 Thread Joseph Maxwell
Hi Jez,
I have read the Handbook 3rd edition, the cvs man pages, printed the Online Chapter 19 
 and read them a few times already, although I will admit that not everything is fully 
clear. However the problem I am experiencing is in the:

"make buildworld"  stage 4: building libraries
causing an error condition


cc -O -pipe  -I/usr/src/gnu/lib/csu/../../../contrib/gcc/config -I. -DIN_GCC  
-finhibit-size-directive -fno-inline-functions
  -fno-exceptions -fno-omit-frame-pointer  -g0 -DCRT_BEGIN  -c -o crtbegin.o  
/usr/src/gnu/lib/csu/../../../contrib/gcc/crtstuff.c

  *** Signal 10

  Stop in /usr/src/gnu/lib/csu.
  *** Error code 1

  Stop in /usr/src.
  *** Error code 1

  Stop in /usr/src.
  *** Error code 1

  Stop in /usr/src.
  *** Error code 1

  Stop in /usr/src.

Where can I find an explanation of the error  codes, these are not available in the 
online manual , are they? at least then I may be able to start deciphering something 
about the problem. All. I have now is that something is amiss in the crtstuff.c file 
of which I have 3 on my desk,


  1. /usr/local/gcc-3.2.2/gcc/crtstuff.c
  2. /usr/src/contrib/gcc/crtstuff.c
  3. /usr/home/maxwell/downloads/gcc/nu042803/gcc-3.2.3/gcc/crtstuff.c

1 is a pre - production untarring file, 2 is the one just downloaded via the cvs 
supfile and 3 the initial download of gcc used in 1, I am assuming, and from all 
indications it is using #2 .
But the error code legend will go a far way for me in figuring out what is going on.
Thanks

O/S - System upgrade with CVS

2003-06-06 Thread Joseph Maxwell
Hello,
Attempting to update my O/S from 4.2 to 4.8

Existing dir structure : ==> /usr/CVSROOT ( created from dist disks w/
initial installation )

I used the following cvsup files to acquire & distribute the files for
the respository, creating /usr/src /usr/ports /usr/doc /usr/packages (MT
Directory)


 *default  host=cvsup3.FreeBSD.org
 *default  base=/usr
 *default  prefix=/usr
 *default  release=cvs
 *default  tag=.
 *default  delete use-rel-suffix

 src-all tag=RELENG_4


 *default  host=cvsup3.FreeBSD.org
 *default  base=/usr
 *default  prefix=/usr
 *default  release=cvs
 *default  tag=.
 *default  delete use-rel-suffix

 ## Ports Collection.
 #
 # The easiest way to get the ports tree is to use the
 "ports-all"
 # mega-collection.  It includes all of the individual
 "ports-*"
 # collections,
 ports-all
 doc-all
 cvs-crypto


The documentation "Complete FreeBSD" 3rd Ed. states that CVSROOT is not
part of the source tree.

 ==> setenv CVSROOT /usr ( hopefully this is the correct path )

I then attempted to do an update

 machine1# cvs update -P -d
 cvs update: in directory .:
 cvs [update aborted]: there is no version here; run 'cvs
 checkout' first
 machine1# cvs checkout
 cvs [checkout aborted]: must specify at least one module or
 directory


So I went ahead with a "make world"  ==>

Repositioning /var | /tmp to avoid disk full condition

2003-06-01 Thread Joseph Maxwell
Hello,
The 3rd edition of "The Complete FreeBSD" suggest repositioning the /var
directory ( and even /tmp) to prevent filling up that partition. I
ignored it and did just that today, filled it up. So I attempted the
repositioning with the following recommended command steps and results:

 cd /var
 tar cf - . | (cd /usr/var; tar xf - )
 cd /
 rm -rf /var
 ln -s /usr/var /var

However the  'rm -rf /var' returned

 rm: /var: Device busy

After trying all known tricks to me to remove /var, I concluded that
since it was mounted from the /etc/fstab I should dismount it and remove
the directory (link point ?) and create a soft link there as
recommended. However, on rebooting boot was aborted, was thrown into
single users mode. After some findangling eventually got the system back
up as before with the /var directory, except that now it contains only
the /var/cron and /var/run directories.

The original /var contained

 /var/account:
 /var/at:
 /var/backups:
 /var/crash:
 /var/cron:
 /var/db:
 /var/games:
 /var/log:
 /var/lost+found:
 /var/mail:
 /var/msgs:
 /var/preserve:
 /var/qmail:
 /var/run:
 /var/rwho:
 /var/smtpd:
 /var/spool:
 /var/tmp:
 /var/webmin:
 /var/yp:

How can I restore the full functioning structural integrity as before,
of course the contents of the /usr/var directory was wiped out somwhere
along the way, sans log, sans mail, sans everything. Just want to
continue as before.

Thanks.

Mboard + CPU Upgrade

2003-04-04 Thread Joseph Maxwell
Hello,

I've transferred two disks from a failed machine to another, with
different MotherBoard and CPU. The diff / similarities follows:

Differences -

 Old Architecture:

  Shuttle AI61 motherboard
  AMD K7 CPU Processor 900 Mhz
  AMD751 Chipset
  3 DIMM Sockets

 New Architecture:

  Shuttle AK32A motherboard
  AMD Athlon CPU 1.5 GHz
  Chipset(s) - 2: VIA VT8366A & VIA VT8233
  2 DIMM Sockets each, DDR/SDR

Similarities:

 Same Hard drives (2 - Boot & data)
 Memory sticks
 5 PCI & 1 AGP slots
 3 PC Cards
  A Diamond Stealth Video Card
  A line modem card
  A SMC NIC

I transferred all the cards including the NIC to ensure similarity of
Hardware Profile.
Machine boots partially, probing devices, listing to stdout. Readout
aborts consistently at a line which is difficult to read on the fly, but
the last few lines have been extracted, which from by naive point of
view seems to indicate a USB problem. I've done a reconfig of kernel, no
significant difference or conflicts were found. I've double check the
BIOS to make sure all relevant USB / PCI options are enabled ( at least
so I think ).
The messages from the last few lines of the probe are as follows:

ahci0:   port 0xd400-0xd41f irq11 at dcsi

cio
> on ubc 10
usb0: USB revision 1.0
uhub0: VIA UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1
uhub0: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered

At this point, last line above, the screen blanks out, process exits
presumably.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
--  Joe  --

PS: If I switch disks to boot of Windows, system boots & operates
normally indicating hardware set up OK - I believe

Re: Moving Disks to new PC Machines

Hello,

  I need to move my system ( actually 2 hard disk) to another
 machine w/ different MotherBoard and CPU. The disks have been
 configured as a bootable system disk and the other data

 minimum amount of perturbation.

I've worked on this transition for about a week now & require some
inputs:
The machine is similar to the old machine:

Nothing else on line, nor is there a follow up line, the screen goes

Any further suggestion, IRQ's to reset, IOMEN, flags 

I've reconfigure the kernel w/ distr Disk2 using Visual mode, but did
not attempt CLI Mode.

Machine does not not do a normal "Reboot"

Hello,


 FreeBSD 4.2, PC 512MMB RAM, 2- HD 60 & 40 Mb. AMD K7 CPU, 900MHz on

 System found in indeterminate state, assumed power failure
 problem. Several reboot and boot attempts failed.
 Re-installed O/S, system came back up, data intact on 2nd HD
 but not seen in fstab file, remount etc. OK smooth running,
 fine

 Doing a tar xf from a CDROM, system went into a "block size"
 error, starting a "disc sync" mode followed by a "reboot"
 condition but never came back up.

 Seems as if Win start up disk required in floppy drive and
 FreeBSD distr. Disk 1or 2  reqd. in cdrom for a "boot"

 Now it makes no difference

Any idea of what could be causing this and possible solution(s)

Ooooops! Wrong Network Interface designation

2003-02-25 Thread Joseph Maxwell
Hello,
Improper shutdown via power failure, disk corruption, re-installation
4.2 the last disk set available. Using a RealTek internal media
interface for a  direct DSL internet connection. Inadvertently, entered
PPP on Network setup, attempts at correcting this have resulted in
miserable failure. Going back in to /stand/sysinstall does not even seem
to provide that option.

Short of a complete re-installation is there another approach, such as
manually entering specifics into specific files, and if so which files -
or have I missed something on the attempt at Post Installation
Configuration changes through the use of  /stand/sysinstall?

IP Change ==> Problems

2003-01-28 Thread Joseph Maxwell
Hello,
I recently changed my ISP - DSL provider, a new static IP, and now
having problems ssh'ing in, none before.
My config ==>

ISP[DSL]
|
Modem
|
Router/Gateway
|
==>  HubLAN machine(1)
   |LAN machine(2)
   |
   |LAN machine(n)

The LAN side machines are configured w/ NAT and the mapping are
unchanged, using 192.168.x.n etc. The WAN side is configured correctly,
I think. I can access the internet from the LAN, SSH & Telnet. However I
cannot telnet or SSH into the LAN and the Port mappings are the same as
before??? The only change has been to the Gateway configuration, IP #,
DNS & subnetmask.

I am using the SMC barricade router,SMC7004ABR, w/ an
Admin GUI, according to the GUI the IP has been updated.
I can ping the gateway, it is seen by nslookup, there is no hostname
assigned so there should be no resolver issues I think

ftp or ssh to the IP followed by the :assigned public port ==>
No address associated with hostname

I 've made the requisite changes to the
defaultrouter="nnn.xxx.yy.zz" in the /etc/rc.conf file inserting the
gateway IP LAN address here. Are there any files that may contain the
Old IP # and may require changing?

What am I missing?
Thanks!

that info, netstat's routing tables do not seem to supply that. When I try to
ssh or even ftp in I get the message: No address associated with hostname
Thanks

IP Changed ==> Problem

2003-01-24 Thread Joseph Maxwell
Hello,
I recently changed my ISP - DSL provider, a new static IP, and now
having problems ssh'ing in, none before.
My config ==>

ISP[DSL] ==>Modem==>Router/Gateway  ==>  HubLAN machine(1)
   |LAN machine(2)
   |
   |LAN machine(n)

The LAN side machines are configured w/ NAT and the mapping are
unchanged, using 192.168.x.n etc. The WAN side is configured correctly,
I think. I can access the internet from the LAN, SSH & Telnet. However I
cannot telnet or SSH into the LAN and the Port mappings are the same as
before??? The only change has been to the Gateway configuration, IP #,
DNS & subnetmask.
What am I missing?
Thanks!

Power Management

2002-12-02 Thread Joseph Maxwell
Hello,
Could someone advise on UPS systems and Power Management  related
software for FREE BSD systems.
i.What systems are dependable and reasonable priced, esp. at the low
end for use with workstations
ii. Is it possible to power down several work stations
simultaneously from one UPS.
I am not concerned with any extended working after a power failure, just
an orderly shutdown of the whole system. I've seen some 1KVA units that
are capable of supporting several machines buy with only 1 serial port
connection on the back, thus connecting only one machine. Is there a way
to replicate the signals to several machines?

Thanks
