I have a 4.11-R box that I'm planning on reinstalling a fresh 6.2-R on. Not an
"upgrade", but a fresh binary install after newfsing the system partitions.
A remaining planning issue is that I have a pre-GEOM vinum data volume on other
disks. The handbook mentions gvinum retaining the same dis

After a non OS drive hardware[2] failure I started getting the following
when trying to vi a file as a non root user:
ex/vi: Error: Log file: No such file or directory
I spent time chasing a few other things since chunks of /var and /etc
were also missing[3]. However,
Installing the IOGear GCS1734 USB KVM seems to have made the whole issue go
away.
Of course installing the KVM took a few tries to find the "right" power
cycling and reboot combination to get any functionality. It looked like the
whole USB infrastructure of the KVM was DoA, initially.

I have been trying, unsuccessfully, to boot a
kernel with an embedded root filesystem. I've
searched the mailing lists and the web without finding
an answer. I hope someone here can help.
Here's the procedure I have used:
1. My kernel is built with options: MFS, MD_ROOT and

# disklabel -r -w md4 auto
# newfs /dev/md4c
# mount /dev/md4c /mnt
.
. put stuff on it
.
# umount /mnt
# mdconfig -d -u 4

In preparation for adding new box[1] to my stable[2] that uses USB for
keyboard and mouse, I got a Belkin F5U119-E PS/2 to USB adapter for my PS/2
keyboard and old Trackman Marble FX. Since there will be a new USB KVM, I
decided to try the adapter out with my FreeBSD 4.11-R server. I managed t
Just off the top of my head, check that your DNS is working. My guess
is that the sshd is trying to do a reverse DNS lookup, when you have the
network configured. It takes a long time for a DNS lookup to time
out.
Try the ssh, wait at least 30 seconds (the DNS time out, IIRC). If it

I recently added the perl 5.8 port to my build server. When building
FreeBSD 4.10, it did not build the system perl as expected.
However, I have a smaller machine that mounts /usr/src and /usr/obj off

Hi,
Does anyone know the status of 5.5-RELEASE? The

David.
