Hi...
on freebsd-hackers, Alfred Perlstein posted a method that allows
boot-disk-less installation... but it requires mdconfig, a 5.1 utility...
is there a method to do this under 4.8?
it seems to me that the job performed by md0 could be done with vn0
e.g.
do
# ls /dev/vn*
if empty do
# cd /
Hi,
I noticed for some time now a relatively high CPU usage of the
user level ppp even on slow links. On my ADSL line (768/128)
ppp consumes up to 20% CPU time (AMD K6-2 300MHz).
I trussed the process and noticed, that it calls getprotobynumber()
for each packet it receives. In most cases, the res

Seconded.
I've been using mfs for /tmp since way back (3.x? 2.x?) and on 5.x (

I was using etherboot to boot the diskless station.
The kernel copied over the network find, but then I
saw no kernel messages on the console.
I put some debug messages into etherboot code, confirmed that
kernel was actually called. I

Actually, the thing I use swap for most now is to make sure I can

Hi Makoto-san,

It seems that you forget to set PATH environment variable. As you
know, "env -i" does not pass any environment variable to child process
if any other variables are explicitly set.

Hi all,
I have a -stable box on which I would like to compile
4.9-release, and install the 4.9 world on a different partition
(so to be able to boot from that partition too).
I think I want to do something similar to a release or to a
cross-build, but somehow the make installworld step fails.
