HEADS UP: Do a full buildkernel when upgrading!
IMPORTANT! Please note that after upgrading your source to or after 0e0fd600f4c75d4dc8a6d605ba9edc960d4f205e (kernel/kobj: Put the default kobj_method inside the kobjop_desc struct.), you will have to do a full buildkernel. quickkernel will succeed but the kernel will not work. Sorry for the inconvenience, but I had assumed quickkernel would not even compile. Regards, Sascha

But refit boot leads to Missing operating system. That usually happens if something changed in the partition table and it was not synced for BIOS mode boot to work. Maybe try with a 1MB BIOS BOOT partition prior to the DragonFly partitions? I haven't needed it, but I know that Fedora Linux insist on adding it if GPT is in use (or always? not sure). I wonder if there's a way to make refit recognize how to boot from the I've never booted a BSD via rEFIt. Is it possible you need to have a 1MB BIOS BOOT partition as the 3rd partition? dfly ufs partition? I was browsing around to find if grub2 might work but haven't found the right .efi image yet. The following is what should work, but I didn't try it out for BSDs. You could of course install a grub.efi image inside the HFS+ partition and then provide a grub.cfg with the chainloader config or kernel loader config based on one of the myriads of grub2 plugins for booting dragonfly. Creating a grub2.efi image file is not hard. Get a livecd with grub2-efi-32 and then use usegrub-mkimage to create an efi image file by selection all plugins/modules you want and the output filename. Once you have that, write or generate a grub.cfg and put it in the same directory. Next bless the grub efi image instead of refit.efi in the OSX installer's terminal. If you have an Nvidia or ATI video adapter you might have to load one of the video bios grub plugins or just boot with rEFIt to avoid such issues. I will try grub32 next. Another thought: if dfly could port /boot/gptboot from fbsd and set up similar booting scheme, then efi booting might be solved? Sorry I can't help you with that.

How to configure it? man ng_pppoe does not give me any useful information. Can anybody to give me and example? Or I must compile mpd and use it? Hi, As far as I know, ppp is currently the only way to configure PPPoE sessions on DragonFly. The ppp userland program makes use of ng_pppoe kernel counterpart to deal with the PADIs/PADOs etc of the PPPoE session. Your configuration seems correct. You should get a tun0 interface with an ip address if everything goes well. Cheers Nuno

That also worked for me. John Thanks, this is very interesting. Could you describe your boot setting, i.e. did you use GPT or MBR? Did you put /boot partition in a separate GPT/MBR partition or was it in a big bsd slice? What filesystem did DragonFly have? I guess I ended up at the same place with grub-1.99. I created bootx64.efi image (btw, my mbpro5,5 has 64bit EFI, so 32bit efi did not work) and blessed it; and EFI-boot to grub2; and grub2 could list the file contents of FreeBSD partitions in the grub2 shell, but no kfreebsd /loader or kfreebsd /kernel/kernel worked. Actually, the latter was most promising in the sense that it did not produce an error message; it went off and hang. I also tried to see if grub2 recognizes any DragonFly partitions. I cheated a little; I created GPT partitions with FreeBSD's gpart which labels them freebsd ufs; then disklabel64-d with DragonFly and newfs (ufs). Now grub2 saw directories as files; it seemed it has the same understanding of DragonFly's ufs as FreeBSD---which thought they're a little corrupted. So it seems to me that grub2 does not even correctly identify files on a DragonFly filesystem and then also can't find or boot them. Do you know if grub-legacy handles gpt partitions? Peeter --

The ppp userland program makes use of ng_pppoe kernel counterpart to deal with the PADIs/PADOs etc of the PPPoE session. Thank you, I have seen it by the ngctl utility. So the real issue is a NAT. PF NAT do not work with tun0, and no more kernel NAT implementations in the dfly at now. I love Darren Reed's ipnat, but it has been removed from dfly. FreeBSD has kernel NAT (which is really ng_nat if I understand correctly) for the ipfw, but dfly uses old versions of the netgraph and ipfw. So, no other solutions at the moment. Your configuration seems correct. You should get a tun0 interface with an ip address if everything goes well. Yes, it works, but eats too much CPU from time to time. This is not fatal for me, but I always like to have a best configuration :-) There is one more thing which seems strange for me: from time to time I see two or even three addresses on the tun0. Is it normal? Must I to worry about it?
