Dell R410 can't boot 7.2 smd64 bsd.upgrade or bsd.rd

2022-10-22 Thread Noah 
I went to do a sysupgrade on my Dell R410 server last night and it entered
a boot loop situation. While loading bsd.upgrade, it immediately reboots. I
manually selected "boot /bsd" and then downloaded a fresh OpenBSD 7.2
bsd.rd (saved to /bsd.rd.72) and booted from that with the same result.
Instant reboot before the kernel is even fully loaded.

Not sure what's going on. dmesg follows.

You chose later, so now do a "doas sysmerge", and merge it now?

I too have had poorer video performance too since 7.1   Not _certain
of the cause but since 7.1 one of my pair of 2-core cpu is always
offline. I suspect this may be to do with the deliberate removal of
hyper-threading support. (Yet this happened in 2018! It was done to
eliminate possible data leaks.
https://www.theregister.com/2018/06/20/openbsd_disables_intels_hyperthreading/
) There is a consequent drop in performance.

I use youtube-dl to download anything I want to see. (Performance is
far better from a local file.) It works on many sites such as the
Rumble 'embed' links and Odysee. headwind.tv was more problematic but
that played well directly over the internet.

using netstat without terminal

2022-10-22 Thread Harald Dunkel 

Hi folks,

would it be possible to fix netstat for 7.3 wrt the assumed screen size,
even if there is no terminal involved? Something like

netstat -f inet6 -ln

sysmerge: what is [leave it for later] good for, actually?

2022-10-22 Thread Harald Dunkel 

Hi folks,

sysmerge noted that I had modified my /etc/newsyslog.conf. Since I
didn't had time for this while other important services were not
merged yet I chose the default [leave it for later].

Problem is, when I came back later (after a reboot), sysmerge didn't
show me that newsyslog.conf still had to be merged. Wouldn't you agree
that this is error-prone? Being "too late" is quite unexpected.
