RE: Number of mbuf clusters (NMBCLUSTERS)

You can increase the maximum number of clusters in /usr/src/sys/sys/sysctl.h and recompile the kernel. But make sure that you have a stable kernel image ready, just in case you increase this value so much that your kernel doesn't boot ;) I guess the default value is around 9, while for 256MB mem

The reason why this output would have come up is that you might have initialized the system to use the S/Key one time passwords -- probably using keyinit. I don't know exactly how to get rid of the problem (I myself have it too), but you can set the password to your login password using keyinit

I added a system call to the FreeBSD-4.6 kernel and compiled the kernel, it compiled properly. Now, in my new kernel, if I try to make some changes in the system call (very minor changes) and recompile the kernel, it gives a compilation error and stops. I removed all the changes I had made and tr

I'm not too sure about this. My impression was that all bootloaders (including grub) load themselves into the primary disk -- do you have an option to specify which harddisk you want to load to. Infact that's the reason why most (if not all) Operating Systems need the primary partition to be on t

RE: bootloader

  The bootloader is always installed on the primary harddisk! Infact the primary partition of FreeBSD also is installed on the primary harddisk. This is my guess, maybe I'm wrong -- Run cfdisk on linux as root -- you might find some FreeBSD partition. Delete it! (or convert to linux native).
