Hello, I am running Debian stable as dom0 and FreeBSD 9.0 as domU. The machine does not have VT-x, so it''s running in paravirtualization. This is the virtual machine configuration file: name = "freebsd" kernel = "/boot/kfreebsd-9.0-2-xen.gz" extra = "vfs.root.mountfrom=ufs:/dev/ad0p2" memory = 128 vif=[ ''bridge=xenbr0'' ] disk = [

Hello, The Xen community is working on a new virtualization mode (or maybe I should say an extension of HVM) to be able to run PV guests inside HVM containers without requiring a device-model (Qemu). One of the advantages of this new virtualization mode is that now it is much more easier to port guests to run under it (as compared to pure PV guests). Given that FreeBSD already supports

Package: xen-utils-common Version: 4.1.2-1 Severity: normal Hi, I was doing some experiments today with XL TOOLSTACK, and found few problems when trying to do PV domU boot. I was trying to run kfreebsd9 or linux-3.2 kernel in qemu using PV i386, and with simple configuration without any disks, nics or virtual framebuffer, kernel boots (and then kernel itselfs correctly fails with information

Hi I have a newly installed FreeBSD 6.0 release machine on which I am getting the following error on the console: "ad4: req=0xc23bc258 SETFEATURES SET TRANSFER MODE semaphore timeout !! DANGER Will Robinson !!" This is generally associated with heightened disk activity, but it happens inevitably after a while (minutes or hours) if the machine is running. The atacontrol list shows:

Good morning, I'm having a bit of an issue getting a 3CR990B-TXM NIC detected and usable. Just wondering if anyone knows of any issues with this NIC chipset and/or with the motherboard chipset. The motherboard is a Biostar GeForce 6100 AM2 using an nVidia nForce 410 chipset and nVidia GeForce 6100 vide chipset. I've tried FreeBSD 6.1, 6.2, 6-STABLE (from Wed), and 7-CURRENT (from

Hello, My server is experiencing occasional kernel panics when under moderate load. I'm attaching a crash dump and the dmesg output. I'm not sure how to read the kernel backtrace but it looks like the Intel NIC (em0) caused the problem. Occasionally, I used to get a "em0: watchdog timeout -- resetting" error message, but I never had a kernel panic. The problem started last

These are new boxes. http://www.supermicro.com/products/system/1U/5015/SYS-5015B-MT.cfm core 2 Q6600 CPU 8Gb 667 RAM Boxes were memtested from Fri-Mon okay. 6.3-RELEASE (amd64) installs fine. Build cycle okay. Running (no load) for a week or so. However, when I try to configure gmirror they hang on boot. After some fiddling it appears issuing #kldload geom_mirror hangs the boxes very hard.

Hi, I have a problem, probably with the SiI 3512 SATA150 controller in a dual-Opteron IBM eServer 326: Every once a while the kernel issues a message like: ad4: TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=150190687 The system waits a few seconds and continues to work normally. It typically occurs several times a day most likely depending on the load of the (SATA connected) hard drive.

I recently put together a new machine w/ a SuperMicro H8SCM and an AMD Opteron 4228 HE... I've having an issue where the clock on the machine skips around... The wierd part is that it's very sudden when it happens... ntp sometimes brings it back, but it can't when the clock gets too far ahread (1000 seconds), ntp dies... In order to catch it happening, I ran a sleep 60 loop

Hello, I am attempting to get by broadcom wifi card up and running, am sick of trying to get ndis working, and am attempting to use the bwi driver (originating in dragonflyBSD). I'm hoping others here have tried to do the same and have some pointers. I'm using 7.1-RELEASE (system/source are in-sync) and my card is a BCM94306MP. My dmesg is posted below. Bwi(4) is installed and it
