...v/ada1p6) into my fstab. This works, but brings back the old issues of having to edit the fstab any time the drive is moved. Does anyone have any idea how to get the labels to work again? I'm not even sure what tool displays what label as I can label with glabel, tunefs, and newfs -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer E-mail: kob6558@gmail.com

...ome ports if I boot the 8.2 kernel. Does anyone remember this being reported by others? It was most likely on current, as it was probably prior to the release of 9. I googled around, but could not find it. I'd really appreciate it if anyone can point me toward a solution. Thanks, -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer E-mail: kob6558@gmail.com

Hi, after updating my freebsd amd64 box from 9.1 (r250841) to 9.2-RC (r254276) virtualbox crashes the machine. Seconds after starting VBOX the screen freezes and then reboots (probably a trap, cannot see it, as screen is in graphics mode). The kernel modules of vbox have been recompiled. Going back to 9.1 kernel and matching vbox modules works. In both cases VBOX 4.2.16 is used. cheers, Thomas

Hello, I have a RELENG_6/AMD64 with an AMD64X2 cpu, 1GB of memory, 512MB swap. I remarked that when I run 2 simulation program [1], sometimes, one of them run one or several of its threads [2] very slowly, but sometimes, it doesn't occur. I remarked that is doesn't depend on SMP/UP, ULE/4BSD, i386/AMD64. It seems to occur also with the kernel stress test under the same conditions (all

...data. When the terminal session is terminated (by logging out of the session), the Perl process is left running in an IWs+ state and it can't be killed. This did not happen in the past. It slowly eats up resources, especially pseudo-terminals. Any idea what might be causing this? -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.

Any progress here? Does anyone know if this will be fixed in 7.1 latest, or should we start looking for different backup solution (in this case I would suggest to remove dump from the source tree - having a backup tool that doesn't work is worse than having none). After upgrading we basically cannot backup our servers. Shouldn't this issue be on

Dear friends: I decided to go out and buy the latest issue of Linux Format with the FreeBSD 6 CD. I am very glad I did. FreeBSD is tough to install, but after spending several hours I finally succeeded in doing a perfect installation. ONE BIG PROBLEM: When I removed the CD and rebooted, I got into my Windows XP (I have two separate disks, one for Windows, one of FreeBSD). There was no way to get

Hi, As a next question to my building this server. I'm nogt able to get a full verbose dmesg. Probably because the kernelbuffer for it is too small. I know there used to be a kernel option to increase it. But I can not find it with the setting in NOTES or any other place I looked.... Is it still there? Thanx, --WjW

While trying to speed up nanobsd builds, I mounted /usr/obj on a ramdisk and found my box crashing. Thinking it might be hardware, I tried a separate machine, but with the same results. I have 4G of ram (i386). Am I just running out of some kernel memory ? If so, is there anything I can adjust to prevent this, yet still use mfs in this way ? mdconfig -a -t malloc -s 1800M newfs /dev/md0

...fine until re-booted. This is probably the primary reason I might not have realized that there was a problem as I don't boot the system often except when traveling, which I was between July 1 and July 6 and again July 18 when the system died.

Hello is there something wrong with the mail archive search scripts? I always seem to get 'list unavailable' :-( Anyway - 5_1 on Dell Latitude C640. the vmware3 port installs but the paths are a little odd - isoimages, licences are looked for in /usr/lib/vmware rather than /usr/local/lib.... I installed (w2k) a guest and it is fine but I cannot get networking host-only or bridge modes

Hello, I'm trying to install FreeBSD 9.1 amd64 on an IBM x3550 M3 server. Installation went smoothly, RAID controller and network cards were successfully recognised. But, after the installation, the server fails to boot from disk. There were some posts, about two years ago, in this list implying that the problem lies in UEFI but I couldn't find any clear solution. Any suggestions would

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

Hi folks! First post here, so please don't bother if it's not the right place to post those kind of questions. I'm currently running a 4.7-release (upgrade to 4.8 planned but not yet started) on my production box. As I would like to setup a small WLAN (major use for my notebook, other clients are possible) I need to know which cards are really supported. The handbook is IMHO not
