5.1 Works but 4.x fails .. :s

2004-01-26 Thread Wout A.
Hi,
I'm trying to install FreeBSD 4.9-RC4 on a amd k6/2 333mhz with a seagate 10gb hdd
and 64M ram.
When I partition my hdd and it 'should' start formatting the disk, I get these errors:

Unable to swap to /dev/ad0s1b: invalid arg
Unable to make new root fs on /dev/ad0s1a!
Couldn't make fs properly. Aborting

while i get this in my debug screen :

ad0 coudln't find label (disk label corrupted)
ad0s1 coudln't find label (disk label corrupted)
DEBUG Scanning disk ad0 for root fs / swap partitions
can't open /dev/ad0s1a: invalid arguments

I get the same with FreeBSD 4.6-R and 4.8-R, but in OpenBSD 3.3 and FreeBSD 5.1 it
works flawless... I don't understand, isn't there a way for me to install FreeBSD 4.x 
???

Thanks
Greetings, Wouter

 Is there a port for MRTG?   Also a step by step instruction for setup
 for FREEBSD only.

Re: AC97 sound support

2003-11-03 Thread Wout A.
Congratz,
Have you tried this?
# kldload snd_driver (This tries all sound drivers..one of them might
work...)
If this works, you might want to add the driver to the /boot/loader.conf,
you can find an example in /boot/defaults/loader.conf .

Good Luck!

Subject: AC97 sound support


 I've just installed 5.1 -RELEASE on my new machine, a HP a350n. For
 sound this computer uses onboard RealTek AC97 Audio.

 I went throught the normal installation steps, then ran the steps for
 soundcard configuration in the manual. I ran kldload. I recompiled
 the kernel with 'device pcm'. I tried 'options PNPBIOS', at which
 point I received a message about an unkown option.

 dmesg | grep pci gives me this line:
 pci0: multimedia, audio at device 31.5 (no driver attached)

 dmesg | grep pcm returns nothing.

 This has all been seen on this list before. I searched c.u.b.f.m and
 -questions and have seen this come up before, but I never saw a
 resolution.

 My question is:

 Does all this mean the FreeBSD does not support onboard Realtek AC97
 Audio? I'd just like to know before I go out and buy a soundcard. It
 is not that I'm cheap, I just like finding out how FreeBSD works. :-)
 However it looks like a Soundblaster Live is the answer.

 Thanks for the help in the past and future.

Hi,
I'd say, try to run xf86config or start the graphical configuration from
/stand/sysinstall .

Good Luck.
