Hi, I'm getting the 'blocks of NULLs in NFS-mounted files' problem repeatably with last night's -current (cvsup'd at Wed Apr 14 04:02:34 BST 1999) running both on server and client (except that the client's kernel is 24hrs older than that).
It happens during a kernel build on the client, so both the sources and objects are being accessed via NFS. During the 'generating linker set emulation glue for ELF' phase, a lot of the .o's turn up with blocks of NULLs. The rest of the world builds fine, but /usr/obj is local so there is little or no NFS writing going on in that case. The client is SMP but it's been doing daily builds with -j8 since that got sorted out, and anyway it now fails in exactly the same way whether -j is used or not. -- Bob Bishop (0118) 977 4017 international code +44 118 r...@gid.co.uk fax (0118) 989 4254 between 0800 and 1800 UK To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
