Hi, I have a question about: /sbin/installkernel I believe this line: LINK_PATH=/boot and usage of this variable... is a bug. What do others say? Using this script, as-is, I would need to chroot to make it work properly for a alternative INSTALL_PATH, right? who the heck is tyson? why did he re-write this? # # /sbin/installkernel - writ...

...I added the following three lines to the options section of /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/MYKERNEL: options IPSEC options IPSEC_ESP options IPSEC_DEBUG After that I recompile the kernel with the following command: # cd /usr/src # make buildkernel KERNCONF=IPSEC && make installkernel KERNCONF=IPSEC And also installed IKE support on my system with the following command using racoon: cd /usr/ports/security/racoon make install clean Afterall completion of build, still IPSec support is not appearing in the system. Suggest me,is there any configuration or modifications need to be...

Recompiling kernel Hi I am using CentOS 4 and trying to recompile kernel for my AMD Thunderbird 1.4 CPU. I used a manual for fedora 3,but I can not make it. After doing #installkernel 2.6-new arch/i386/boot/bzlmage System.map My comuter says "arch/i386/boot/bzlmage no such a file or directory" Could you possibly help me where the appropriate directory is please? Thank you for your help in advance. Cheers, Joe ______________________________________________________...

Hi, I'm running 4.8-STABLE but I'm having some problems installing a new kernel. (in /usr/src make installkernel). mv /kernel /kernel.old operation not permitted My securelevel is currently set to -1 (kern_securelevel=-1) and kern_securelevel_enable="NO" I have already executed chflags noschg /kernel and /kernel.old (while in single user mode). What am I missing? Thanks. -------------- next pa...

.... The error I get is along the lines of: Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad4s1a Root mount failed: 16 At first I got this error using a custom kernel configuration known as WWW, but after getting this error I built a new kernel based on GENERIC: # cd /usr/src # make update # make buildkernel # make installkernel # reboot Per /usr/src/UPDATING there was a change in the ATA drive at 4.5-REL, but it mentioned running mergemaster to create the new devices, and according to /usr/src/Makefile I shouldn't do that until I get past the current stage (which is where I am stuck): (/usr/src/Makefile comments)...

Hello, I installed 4.8-RELEASE a few weeks ago, and since I let the effort sit stagnant for a while I decided to do the cvsup/buildworld/buildkernel/installkernel/installworld/mergemaster/MAKEDEV steps to get current. Went fine, rebooted, then noticed that just one CPU was recognized: FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE #0: Thu Jun 19 17:05:20 PDT 2003 mark@lah-210.mainstreet.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/MDK FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor motherboard cpu0 (BSP): apic...

Back before the 7.0 Release I used to install cross builds by NFS-mounting /usr/src and /usr/obj of the build machine on the target machine and running: # cd /usr/src # env MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX=/usr/obj/<stuff> make installkernel KERNCONF=<kernconf> ... This doesn't work any more because all the installation tools are built for the architecture of the build system. The alternative to mount the whole fstab structure of the target machine into the build server and installing with DESTDIR works, but feels pretty c...

I made a page to help anyone who simply wants these things: 1) Samba to work. 2) Shortest amount of steps. 3) Autoreconnect at login to work. I've condensed setting up samba into four easy steps. I hope this helps a lot of people. http://www.installkernel.com/samba Enjoy!

...when I try to login as the root or a regular user it says: pam_authanticate: permission denied so, I went ahead and re-updated my box from the very beginning, including unnecessary at this point cvsup. I used this command: make buildworld && make buildkernel KERNCONF=mykern && make installkernel KERNCONF=mykern && reboot so, everything went OK, but at the end when it was almost done with kernel, it gave me error code 1, it reads: Please see attachment, screenshot What am I doing now, I'm scared ;-) Big Thanks Best Regards, Anton

I'm currently administering a machine about 1500mi from me with nobody local to the machine to assist me. Anyways, my only access to this machine is via SSH, no remote serial console or anything. When I try to do a "make installworld" I end up with install: rename: /lib/INS@aTxk to /lib/libcrypt.so.3: Operation not permitted very shortly thereafter. I cannot boot

...: /kernel version mismatch: "FreeBSD 4.8-STABLE #2: Fri Jun 20 18:34:14 ADT 2003 " and "" Prior to those kernel upgrades, I had no problems generating core files, and nothing has changed configuration wise, except as results from upgrading the OS using 'installworld/installkernel/mergemaster' ... On Jupiter, previous to the Jun 20th upgrade, I was able to generate two cores off of a Jun 6th kernel, so something between Jun 6th and Jun 20th has changed ... Does anyone know of *anything* that may have been commit'd in that period of time that could have affected how...

Hi, I was under the impression a successful make world was updating include files in /usr/include/netinet too. When I have a good make world, the files in /usr/include have new time stamps, but the ones in netinet have not! Am I missing something here? My current stable doesn't compille properly it fails in kdump on a missing ioctlcmd_t typedef. Peter

Greetings, Apologies if this is not the appropriate list, but my questions are about best practices in maintaining production servers (so I believe I can justify a post in -stable, short of a -release list :) I maintain a modest installation of 6 FreeBSD servers. They're CVSUP'd to RELENG_4_8 (I make buildworld on each individually) and I portupgrade ports as necessary. In an attempt to

...n program do all the ZFS setup and configuration. I put root on a 5 disk encrypted raidz array. Besides the installer configuring 5 times the amount of swap space I asked for (asked for 8gb, installer put 8gb on each drive, for 40gb in total.) everything was working great until I reached "make installkernel". I followed section 23.7 (rebuilding "world") explicitly. I have not altered the test system in any way from the installer provided settings. I'm reporting this as a bug, but would would also like some advice on how to fix it. Literally all that has been done post installation...

hi all. it was happened that i have no upgrade my system long time. Before that i used for upgrading "classic" way. make buildworld make buildkernel make installkernel mergemaster make installworld But in current moment as i can see the upgrading is totally changed. As i understand commands sequence is next: #freebsd-update fetch #freebsd-update install #freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.1-RELEASE (9.1 for example) #freebsd-update install #reboot #freebsd-update inst...

Hello, I have a problem with loader. I recently upgraded from 6_rel to 7_rel. Now when I install world there is a problem booting. Here is what I do: cd /usr/src make buildworld make buildkernel KERNCONF=BLACK make installkernel KERNCONF=BLACK At this point I can reboot and all is good. After boot I install the new world: cd /usr/src mergemaster -p reboot into single user mode cd /usr/src make installworld mergemaster Now when I reboot there is a problem. I get an error that the system cannot boot. Part of it looks like...

I successfully did my first FreeBSD upgrade yesterday after looking at the manual, and cross referencing with Googling and getting help from our network engineer here at CWU.
