Actually, if you were planning on using NFS for such a task, you could
have the NFS server build the world and then have all of the NFS clients
simply install it. That would be even more efficient than having the
different boxes build their worlds individually.

The above assuming that the boxes share a compatible architecture, of
course.

Hum. Ok. The actual error messages (from dmesg and
/var/log/messages) were of the form 
"twe0: command failed - device failure". At this point it was
impossible to do *anything* to the filesystem(s) on the disks
connected to the 3ware controller.

(I have seen something similar a good few years back, with a
particular Seagate SCSI disk model. Not that this is relevant, though.)

I've looked at 3Ware's web site, and they claim that the new
firmware (version 6.6) fixes certain problems with RAID 5
configurations. My configuration is RAID 0, so it is entirely possible
that the new firmware will have no effect for me. 

Version 6.6 supposedly requires an updated driver - is the
driver in -stable so updated? If so, I'll go ahead and backup my data
and upgrade the firmware.

Packages link on releng4.freebsd.org and stable.freebsd.org

2001-05-28 Thread Phuc Ngoc Huynh

Hi!

I'm trying to install FreeBSD 4.3-20010527-STABLE,
but it looks like the package-link points to:
packages -> ../../../packages-4-release
which doesn't exist :(

I've searched around the ftp-site, and wondered if
packages should point to:
../../../ports/i386/packages-4.3-release
instead?

The point is I can't seem to install FreeBSD.
Any ideas anyone?

This is a totally different and unrelated failure.  It's not clear what 
is going wrong here though; I'll have to ask 3ware what this suggests.

The RAID 5 issue is not related to this (and does not affect FreeBSD).

No driver changes are required.

OK. As I said in my first message, I was running -stable as of
Feb. 26th. The March thread on -stable indicated that there were
recent fixes for race conditions; I'm going to just watch this machine
for a while to see if it works better.

Thanks for your help.

hangs with sysctl -a

2001-05-28 Thread AMAKAWA Shuhei

Has anybody tried 'sysctl -a ' on a recent -STABLE?
My i386 machine hangs reproducibly.
Built sometime after src/sys/kern/subr_disk.c rev 1.20.2.2,
which could possibly be the culprit.
OK, I haven't provided sufficient information nor have I attempted
to narrow down the problem, but could anybody just let me know if it
works on your machine or not?
It's easy to test, ..well if you don't mind hanging it.
Thanks.

Reproduced it here also, it hung right after displaying
kern.devstat.version: 4

I couldn't telnet into the box to restart it, I had to hit the reset
switch.

OK; I tested it, and got the reported hang.

I then re-booted & tried again -- this time, outside of the X
environment.  Big difference I noticed was that the command (the second
time around) did output a lot of variables & values; here are the last
several reported:

kerm.fscale: 2048
kern.devstat.numdevs: 4
kern.devstat.generation: 4
kern.devstat.version: 4

...and that's where it hung.

This is on a -STABLE as of this morning:

built from sources updated from a local CVS repository that was updated:

The machine is my laptop, where I've been tracking -STABLE daily since
early March.  There's some information about it at
http://www.catwhisker.rog/~david/FreeBSd/laptop.html.

I have not tried booting in single-user mode to try it yet; I'm willing,
if there's reason to believe it might make a difference.

I should be able to perform reasonable experiments upon request.
