stable/7 i386 seems more "stable" at r197725 than r198747 does

One of my fairly critical home machines -- the one on which I'm composing this message -- is presently running FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE r197725: FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE #154 r197725: Sat Oct 3 07:56:12 PDT 2009 r...@freebeast.catwhisker.org:/common/S3/obj/usr/src/sys/ALBERT which it had been running since

Re: problems with gmirror on ggate over slow link

I think you hit the same bug as I did a while ago. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/132798 You can get a patch at PR and give a try. Make sure you update both server and client; otherwise, it will cause a panic or so. Hiro On Tue, 03 Nov 2009 16:23:24 + Pete French wrote: >

8.0-RC2's /boot/loader doesn't like booting from ZFS?

Hello. Two separate machines fail when starting loader(8) after upgrading from 8.0-RC1 to -RC2. Both have been installed by following http://wiki.freebsd.org/RootOnZFS/GPTZFSBoot - one is a VMware machine with just one disk, the other a Sun Fire X2200 server with 2 disks in a ZFS mirror.

Installation boot sequence freeze

When installing freebsd (7.2, 8.0 betas, rc1, rc2 - AMD64) on a Clevo M540SR laptop (chipset VIA VN896), after menu option selection, the boot process freezes at "Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/md0". On verbose booting it freezes giving some mode information: md0: Preloaded image 4194304 bytes
