Hi! Using the ramdisk kernel feature results in a kernel problem when I use the disklabel command on the ramdisk.
This is what I do : Use 3.9 (tried sys.tgz from mirror as well as updated sources from cvs) in /usr/src/sys/arch/i386/conf cp GENERIC Test echo pseudo-device rd 1 # ramdisk>>Test config Test cd ../compile/Test make clean && make depend && make cp bsd /bsd.1 reboot At the boot prompt I give "boot bsd.1" to boot the newly created kernel. I log in as root and enter "rdconfig /dev/rd0c 4500 &" rdconfig does not return, so this seems to work OK. I now have to disklabel that partition: disklabel -E rd0 which makes the kernel go into debug mode. Always. Message is: Kernel: integer divide fault trap, code=0 Stopped at rdstrategy +0x49; divl 0x28(%ecx),%eax I do not need a miniroot environment or such, I just need a RAMDISK, so I did not add the RAMDISK_HOOKS or the MINIROOTSIZE. Am I doing something wrong or is that a bug somewhere? I had this working with 3.5 the way I did it now, but maybe I need to add something else to the kernel config? Regards, T.
