Installation Troubles
m fairly new to OpenBSD (been using FreeBSD for years) and have stumbled across some issues on a desktop install (after several server based installs over the past few months). The system has two identical drives (WD 250G) which I wish to RAID (1). As i understand it openbsd has no support for my onboard raid system (NF4 board , eVga 680i) so am to use kernel options. I enable the raid1 in the bios options and install windows on an 80gb partition (of the 250GB drive it sees.) and can boot successfully. I then install OpenBSD on the rest of the drive (wd0) making sure to slice it up carefully (identical to the howto but with increased /usr space). I then install the required components and complete the install by ensuring the installboot runs (with correct references too wd0) and issue the dd command (whilst reference /dev/rwd0a for copying to openbsd.pbr). This all seems fine and I then configure windows to boot it which also works well. Its when I select this new Openbsd boot option I get the error: Loading... ERR M As I understand it I have some how messed up the secondary loader and it needs to be reinstalled , so i did a new install . I reinstalled the system 5 times over a day trying to work out my problem. wd0 is partitioned with the 80GB for windows and the rest devoted to OpenBSD and wd1 is currently only partitioned for windows with the rest 'free'. Im at a dead end of where to turn next as I am sure this is an issue with my onboard raid,drive setup and boot parameters as I can add files to the drives when Im booted into the shell provided on the CD. Any help would be appreciated. disklabel : # /dev/rwd0c: type: ESDI disk: ESDI/IDE disk label: WDC WD2500KS-00M flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 16 sectors/cylinder: 1008 cylinders: 16383 total sectors: 488397168 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # microseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # microseconds drivedata: 0 16 partitions: # sizeoffset fstype [fsize bsize cpg] a:306873 163846935 4.2BSD 2048 16384 304 # Cyl 162546*-162850 b:614880 164153808swap # Cyl 162851 -163460 c: 488397168 0 unused 0 0 # Cyl 0 -484520 d:245952 164768688 4.2BSD 2048 16384 244 # Cyl 163461 -163704 e:164304 165014640 4.2BSD 2048 16384 164 # Cyl 163705 -163867 f: 323213121 165178944 4.2BSD 2048 16384 328 # Cyl 163868 -484515* i: 16384687263 unknown # Cyl 0*-162546* [disklabel] fdisk Disk: wd0 geometry: 30401/255/63 [488392065 Sectors] Offset: 0 Signature: 0xAA55 Starting Ending LBA Info: #: idC H S -C H S [ start: size ] *0: 070 1 1 - 10198 254 63 [ 63: 163846872 ] HPFS/QNX/AUX 1: A6 10199 0 1 - 30400 254 63 [ 163846935: 324545130 ] OpenBSD 2: 000 0 0 -0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused 3: 000 0 0 -0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused installboot boot: /mnt/boot proto : /usr/mdec/biosboot device: /dev/rwd0c /usr/dec/biosboot : entry point 0 proto bootblock size 512 /mnt/boot is 3 blocks x 16384 bytes fs block shift 2; part offset 163846935; inode block 128, offset 5416 using MBR partition 1: type 166 (0xa60 offsetn 163846935 (0x9c41b1) This is purely a trial run install before the release of 4.2 as I knew I would come across some issues trying to create my setup.

nfe0 issues
I recently installed 4.2 release on my evga 680i based motherboard , which uses nfe(4) for the onboard gig NIC's. There seems to be an issue in the handling of the autodetection of media types and the speed it can run at when manual selection is set. So say for instance I set it manually to 100baseTX it will no longer function and does not send packets. If I then set it to 10baseT it will work fine, I have checked the network routers/cables and interfaces from a windows partition which detects a 100mbps link. I have notived that on the router it detects a 100mbps link before the kernel initiatesthe device during boot i.e before any mention of nfe on the screen. Has anyone else had any similar issues using nfe interfaces ?
Re: nfe0 issues
Sorry about not including a dmesg output previously. I will try a snapshot and report back on any progress.

Re: nfe0 issues
I have submitted my dmesg to to the email address. I have recently updated to -current which appears to have solved the issue, im guessing the PR you pointed to was the culprit. Ill test it more thoroughly and report back if anything else is wrong.

Re: 7800GS + 2 monitors under 4.2-release
Hi Paul Just wondering if you have had any success ? I updated to -current and also xenocara but it hasn't worked. I have managed to get some form of dual screen through nv(4)'s Option "DualHead" "Yes". I could not set a resolution suitable for my dual 19"W (1440x900) monitors thou, it also treats the pair of monitors as one giant monitor which makes opening windows 'fully' span the pair.

Re: 7800GS + 2 monitors under 4.2-release
I was just wondering if anyone has made any progress? I'm still using one monitor and it feels like I lost a finger.

Re: 7800GS + 2 monitors under 4.2-release
Just thought I'd let people know xenocara has just had a big update (according to CVS mailing list) to a more recent code including nv and server. I will let you know if I have any success with the new update. -Chris On 24/11/2007, Paulo Rodriguez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hey there, so far I haven't been successful with the snapshots.
