I have two alphas running -current. One is a 21164, and I've been able to keep it up to date. However, on my 21264 (Digital/Compaq XP1000) I've been unable to get a buildworld to complete for almost a month. Now I find that I can't even build a bootable kernel. (The kernel builds, but the boot fails when trying to mount root.) I'm able to boot it with a kernel that I built on 10/7, and that is what I'm running right now. However, trying to make buildworld, it gets as far as building libncurses, and stops. ===> libncurses sed curses.h -e "/@NCURSES_MAJOR@/s//5/" -e "/@NCURSES_MINOR@/s//0/" -e "/@NCURSES_PATCH@/s//990821/" -e "/@NCURSES_CONST@/s///" -e "s/@cf_cv_builtin_bool@/1/g" -e "s/@cf_cv_cc_bool_type@/0/g" -e "s/@cf_cv_type_of_bool@/char/g" -e "s/@cf_cv_typeof_chtype@/long/g" -e "s/@cf_cv_widec_shift@/8/g" -e "s/@cf_cv_shift_limit@/32/g" -e "s/@cf_cv_1UL@/1UL/g" sh /usr/src/lib/libncurses/../../contrib/ncurses/include/MKhashsize.sh /usr/src/lib/libncurses/../../contrib/ncurses/include/Caps > hashsize.h awk -f /usr/src/lib/libncurses/../../contrib/ncurses/ncurses/tinfo/MKnames.awk /usr/src/lib/libncurses/../../contrib/ncurses/include/Caps *** Signal 4 Stop in /usr/src/lib/libncurses. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src/lib. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/src. I even tried (unsuccessfully) to install a recent snapshot to get back on track. I tried booting the kern floppy from the 19990915 snapshot, which dropped back to SRM before ever requesting the mfsroot floppy. I also tried the 19991031 version, which got further along, but hangs on the screen where it is probing for devices. I'd be happy to provide any more info, if you have any ideas, but I'm starting to wonder if there may be a hardware problem. I know that other people are running -current on this and similar machines. -- ----------------------------------------------#-----#--#####--------------- # # # # Steve Sizemore # # # Dept. of Cellular and Molecular Pharmacology # # # Box 0450, Room HSE-1285 # # # University of California Medical Center # # # # 513 Parnassus Avenue ##### ##### ##### ####### San Francisco CA 94143-0450 # # # # # steve@cmpharm.ucsf.edu ##### ##### (415) 476-6987 FAX: (415) 476-6515 # # # # # -------------------------------------------------------------#####--#------ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
