Hi i want to add the FreeBSD 6.2 release to our installserver according to the manual http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2007-April/008420.html But if I type FreeBSD-6.2 at the pxelinux boot prompt the created image load but nothing happens. ?boot: FreeBSD-6.2 Loading memdisk.... Loading

OS: FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE Environment = VMWare (Version 5) and Computer (CPU=Intel P4 2.4G, Memory=Kingston 1G DDR400, Storage=2G CF) create a less-than 100MB of image (image for ramdisk, mfs root) The loader.rc { load kernel // The kernel used 6.2 GENERIC load -t mfs_root /image // dd if=/dev/zero of=/image bs=1k count=95k } above config can boot normal. create

Hi, I am trying to create a hybrid ISO image for FreeBSD 9.2 using syslinux 6.01 and isohybrid.pl I found at http://www.overclockix.com/sources/isohybrid.pl (I know there is a C version in syslinux but I haven't been able to build it yet due to the UUID library being different to the one in FreeBSD). According to the wiki mboot.c32 can boot FreeBSD, however I haven't been able to get it

Hi, I've done some strange(?) experiments and I managed to get a panic of type "baddir" and just now another one that only rebooted my system instantly without writing a vmcore. I don't know if this is important. I could not find any information on how gvinum detects failed hard disks. That's why I tried something really simple. Steps to reproduce: 1) dd if=/dev/zero of=a

The second RC build of the 10.0-RELEASE release cycle is now available on the FTP servers for the amd64, i386, ia64, powerpc, powerpc64 and sparc64 architectures. The image checksums follow at the end of this email. ISO images and, for architectures that support it, the memory stick images are available here (or any of the FreeBSD mirror sites):

Hello :-) I am installing the 9.2-RC1 bootonly iso which wants to download stuff from snapshots while it is in releases directory: Installer wants to get 9.2-RC1 stuff from here (where it is missing): ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/i386/ While the stuff is at: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/i386/9.2-RC1/ Please fix :-) Best regards :-) Tomek -- CeDeROM,

Mr Anvin, is there a specific loading address used with the Syslinux bootsector (to load ldlinux.sys)? like msdos 0x70, freedos 0x60 we're trying to have a SYS program that can create bootsector for other OS's than FreeDOS only. not much luck though :( this way I'm trying to avoid the use of syslinux.exe/com (need the diskspace that it would save by not including this program) I

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

Title: HOWTO-FreeBSD-on-XCP Author: John D. "Trix" Farrar Date: 2012-02-09 * The Challenge - ParaVirtualized FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE under XCP 1.1.0 The idea here is to create a PV FreeBSD VM under Xen Cloud Platform (XCP) without starting with an HVM first. The documentation I''''ve been able to find on-line is at least a year old and is mostly written for Xen (under

The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is pleased to announce the availability of FreeBSD 7.3-RELEASE. This is the fourth release from the 7-STABLE branch which improves on the functionality of FreeBSD 7.2 and introduces a few new features. There will be one more release from this branch to allow future improvements to be made available in the 7-STABLE branch but at this point most developers are

We're doing a "mini-RC3" to encourage testing of the Highpoint driver (hptrr) backout. Testing of 7.0-RC2 showed there were problems with the driver update done between RC1 and RC2. Because it's a "mini-RC" targetted at testing of one particular thing we have not bothered with setting up FreeBSD Update. You can use the normal cvsup-and-build method of doing an update

Hi all, I'm looking for a way to recreate the functionality of PGP Disk (under Win32). Basically, create an encrypted file, which contains a filesystem which can then be mounted in any mount point. I know I can use GELI in FreeBSD 6 - as I understand, it performs the encryption at the partition level (the whole partition is encrypted). I'd like to be able to simply unmount my

Hi Andi, Here's a little batch of cleanups: - re-enable VDSO when PARAVIRT is enabled - make the parainstructions symbols match the other altinstructions naming convention - add kernel command-line options to disable altinstructions for smp and pv_ops Oh, and I'm mailing your noreplacement patch back at you, for no particularly good reason.
