Hmm, the GNU C++ header file collection has been changing from time to time. (E.g. they didn't have in previous releases.)

Are you sure your BIOS could even boot off the 4th disk? (I'm not quite familiar with all this IDE stuff that popped up recently.) There's no such thing like a `configuration file', all the knowledge must reside inside the bootmanager itself.

I've seen this too, and it appears to be benign. It was always happening but my extra debugging messages brought it to light. :-) I probably won't dive on this one unless Poul-Henning feels a sudden urge to revisit libdisk and figure out why MakeDevChunk() does this. > **** Warning: calculated sectors per cylinder (4000) disagrees with > **** disk label (1008) > **** /dev/rwd0a 200000 sectors in 50 cylinders of 1 tracks, 4000 sectors > **** 97,7MB in 4 cyl groups (16 c/g, 31.25MB/g, 3776 i/g) > > Isn't this a totally horrible and inefficient way to manage a disk? Talk to Poul-Henning.. :-) We've been over this one before. Again, I probably won't try to address this one. > cpio: /mnt/dev/wd0s2a not created: newer or same age version exists > **** 0 blocks This is fine. It's basically just saying that I created it already (as I have to for certain devices) and it's not going to bother overlaying it. Some parts of the install are brute-force and attempt to redo work that's already done. Since it'd be substantially harder to make it cleverer about it, and to no real gain, I'm not going to bother. > 3.

Yes, this has been reported. I'm still waiting for some input on rebuilding the compat distributions (these are done totally by hand and we're still using the 2.0.5 ones). I could use some help with these, folks! > I don't recall reading in the installation that loading these > modules would replace working modules with non-working ones, > or it wasn't clear. Well, it's not *supposed to* - it's supposed to just load older shared libs (e.g. the actual telnet binary isn't touched at all). However, this still seems to cause telnet to have a hissy fit. Not sure why yet. I'll go back and look through both compat dists to see if something is in there that shouldn't be (I'd also like to encourage other folks to look too - last time I build compat20 by myself I ended up leaving some DES code in there by mistake!). Thanks for all the feedback!

What I known is that the libg++ 2.6.2 distribution that I downloaded from prep.ai.mit.edu contains minmax.h. The actual file is dated May 29, 1992 and contains a 1992 copyright. I don't actually know when the file first appeared in the libg++ distribution, nor do I know what the exact version of libg++ that FreeBSD 2.1 uses. However, the GNU libg++ 2.6.2 distribution has been out for awhile and (I believe) is fairly current. What I am suggesting is that minmax.h belongs in the FreeBSD libg++ distribution (unless someone has knowledge to the contrary).

[4]Actually it isn't that inefficient, the cylinder/rotational stuff doesn't [4]buy you much unless you have at least 10 heads... > That raises the question: what are owners of such poor devices > supposed to do in order to avoid the faked geometry? [4]Well, they can give params to newfs from the menu in sysinstall, or they [4]can do it on the commandline later. I was somewhat annoyed by the messages, but really annoyed by the reduction of alternate superblocks, which I thought was computed based on the number of cylinder groups. If the cylinder groups are made absurdly huge, that calculation falls down. Perhaps this has been changed, but since 100Meg only got 3 alternates, and I recall my old VAX 11/780 on 4.3BSD had 13 or so on the 80Meg (RM03) primary, I think this is bad. FYI, the newfs man page says that if the s/g value is NOT 4096, it will be impossible for fsck to find alternate superblocks. 4000s/c != 4096s/g.

The Microsoft compatible mice do not have a standardized 3-button protocol, therefore X treats it as a 2-button mouse. You can put "Emulate3Buttons" in the "Pointer" section of your /etc/XF86Config. Then you can "press" the middle button by SIMULTANEOUSLY pressing the leftmost and rightmost buttons.

Most of the progrms compiled correctly (pico, imapd etc.) but at the end of compilation the compilation stopped with the message like "Process 1236 killed by vm_pageout -- out of swap". When I disabled most of the drivers at the boot (with visual) it helped but did not cure the problem (the compilation got further). Also I have problems with X windows: after opening 6 or 7 windows the computer logs me out. I suspect that it may have a similar origin as the problem with "pine" compilation. I did not have such problems with FreeBSD version 2.0. >How-To-Repeat: I suppose it should repeat on any computer with similiar configuration. >Fix: I do not know >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: From owner-freebsd-bugs Fri Nov 10 04:18:26 1995 Return-Path: owner-bugs Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) id EAA20073 for bugs-outgoing; Fri, 10 Nov 1995 04:18:26 -0800 Received: from fgwmail.fujitsu.co.jp (fgwmail.fujitsu.co.jp [164.71.1.133]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) with ESMTP id EAA20068 for ; Fri, 10 Nov 1995 04:18:22 -0800 Received: from fdmmail.fujitsu.co.jp by fgwmail.fujitsu.co.jp (8.6.12+2.5Wb4/3.3W5-MX950612-Fujitsu Mail Gateway) id VAA06219; Fri, 10 Nov 1995 21:18:19 +0900 Received: from fdm.fujitsu.co.jp by fdmmail.fujitsu.co.jp (8.6.12+2.5Wb4/3.3W5-MX951030-Fujitsu Domain Mail Master) id VAA14025; Fri, 10 Nov 1995 21:17:48 +0900 Received: from [133.160.49.9] by fdm.fujitsu.co.jp (5.65/6.4J.6) id AA01282; Fri, 10 Nov 95 21:17:47 +0900 Received: from localhost (yuhara@localhost) by cindy.avalon.flab.fujitsu.co.jp (8.6.9+2.4Wb/3.3Wb-ocsys-94092200) with SMTP id VAA11819 for ; Fri, 10 Nov 1995 21:17:39 +0900 Message-Id: <199511101217.VAA11819@cindy.avalon.flab.fujitsu.co.jp> To: bugs@freebsd.org Subject: scsi_ioctl.c causes PANIC Reply-To: yuhara@flab.fujitsu.co.jp From: yuhara@flab.fujitsu.co.jp Date: Fri, 10 Nov 1995 21:17:38 +0900 Sender: owner-bugs@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Bug Report: scsi_ioctl.c causes panic.

We were having some email problems back then, so I don't know if my report never reached anyone - or - if you replied but I never received the reply. Nevertheless: I first saw this problem trying to install version 2.0.5, and I am still seeing the same problem when trying to install the latest 2.1 SNAP (10/26 if I recall). When trying to perform the initial installation on my machine, after going through all the menus to partition and label the disk, when I go to commit the changes to disk, I immediately get the following error message (as seen on the debug screen): vm_bounce_alloc: b_bufsize(0x200) < b_bcount(0x1ff0a400) !! and nothing gets written to the disk (I *am* glad it doesn't trash my disk!). Turning on the new "debug flag" did not yield any additional information. My environment is: Pentium 90 (AMI Titan II EISA/PCI motherboard, one CPU installed) BT946C BusLogic PCI bus-mastering SCSI controller Greater than 1GB disk translation enabled (out of necessity) 4G SCSI disk - using third DOS partition for FreeBSD 32MB memory I am a hacker and would try to track this down myself - but I'm in a catch-22 here: I can't edit and recompile the system until I get the system installed! So any help with this critical problem would be appreciated. I'll be happy to try any new versions you come up with that you think will address this problem. One of the problems may be that bounce buffers shouldn't really be used on my machine, given that I've got a 32-bit bus-mastering SCSI controller (this is probably related to kernel problem #378). But even if it does want to use bounce buffers during install "just to be safe", that's okay - but the panic is not... BTW - the installation program *does* find and identify my BT946C controller. Personal note: I've been trying to get FreeBSD installed on one of my machines for over two years now, and have never been successful! When I bought the hardware for my new Pentium machine, I specifically checked to make sure that the pieces (e.g. the SCSI controller) were currently supported by FreeBSD, and thought that installation would be a breeze with the "right" hardware! But of course, being a software practitioner myself, I know that code is never easy (that's why they call it CODE!). So, as you might presume by the fact that I'm *still* trying to install FreeBSD after more than two years, I *really* would like to get it going one of these days! I realize that all the development work for FreeBSD is "spare time" from volunteers, and that someone may not get around to fixing this "immediately". But I do consider this to be a "critical" problem (at least for me!) because I can't even get the system installed - and I must not be the only person seeing this problem... So, because of our recent unreliability of email, and the fact that this mail may not even be read until someone has some "spare time", I would appreciate at least a simple "ack" that a FreeBSD org. person has seen this email... Thank you!

I successfully installed a 2.0.5 snap distribution several months ago.. but when 2.0.5 release came out I attempted to install over it.. and i have had no luck with any snap (i have tired every one) since. most of the errors i got before (not being able to access root.flp, not installing anything but the boot manager) have been resolved. .. but my current problem when I install i get no errors.. but after installation upon rebooting my screen goes into 80 column mode, i get an error "Rom basic system not found".. with an error beep and .. that is it. i have a 486 slc 33 with a mathcoprocessor, my drive 1 is a seagate 120mb hard drive.. and my drive 2 is a maxtor 540 (i am attempting to install freebsd on the 540).. i configure it with with first 300mb partition labled as /, next is a 69mb swap, the rest of the space on the 540 is /usr.

This might be caused by a negative block number somehow being passed to dscheck(). If this happens, then "truncating" the i/o would actually expand the i/o to the size of the partition plus the absolute value of the negative block number. Do you have a (BSD) partition of size approximately 0x1ff0a400 bytes (500+ MB)? Negative block numbers are used by the file system code but are not supposed to reach device drivers. >My environment is: > Pentium 90 (AMI Titan II EISA/PCI motherboard, one CPU installed) > BT946C BusLogic PCI bus-mastering SCSI controller >... >One of the problems may be that bounce buffers shouldn't really be used on >my machine, given that I've got a 32-bit bus-mastering SCSI controller (this >is probably related to kernel problem #378). But even if it does want to Bounce buffers are used because the GENERIC config specifies them and the `bt' driver handles all BusLogic devices from isa through pci using much the same code - it requests bounce buffer support for all buses.

Thus this is not a solution, it still would require me drive down there to run the fsck manually. What I'm searching for: - run check for the news file system only if it is not clean, and all problems fixable by fsck will be fixed - all other file systems are fsck'd normally (with -p, without -y). This would allow me to reboot the system without forced fsck on news file system (15+ minutes), and will allow the system to reboot automatically in case of panic. -- Heikki Suonsivu, T{ysikuu 10 C 83/02210 Espoo/FINLAND, hsu@clinet.fi work +358-0-4375209 fax -4555276 home -8031121 From owner-freebsd-bugs Sat Nov 11 20:20:05 1995 Return-Path: owner-bugs Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) id UAA22052 for bugs-outgoing; Sat, 11 Nov 1995 20:20:05 -0800 Received: (from gnats@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) id UAA22046 ; Sat, 11 Nov 1995 20:20:03 -0800 Resent-Date: Sat, 11 Nov 1995 20:20:03 -0800 Resent-Message-Id: <199511120420.UAA22046@freefall.freebsd.org> Resent-From: gnats (GNATS Management) Resent-To: freebsd-bugs Resent-Reply-To: FreeBSD-gnats@freefall.FreeBSD.org, archie@tribe.com Received: from bubba.tribe.com ([205.184.207.7]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) with ESMTP id UAA21917 for ; Sat, 11 Nov 1995 20:15:50 -0800 Received: (from archie@localhost) by bubba.tribe.com (8.6.12/8.6.12) id UAA00439; Sat, 11 Nov 1995 20:15:17 -0800 Message-Id: <199511120415.UAA00439@bubba.tribe.com> Date: Sat, 11 Nov 1995 20:15:17 -0800 From: Archie Cobbs Reply-To: archie@tribe.com To: FreeBSD-gnats-submit@freebsd.org X-Send-Pr-Version: 3.2 Subject: misc/819: pkg_manage "install package" failure Sender: owner-bugs@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk >Number: 819 >Category: misc >Synopsis: adding a package results in "not found" >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-bugs >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Sat Nov 11 20:20:01 PST 1995 >Last-Modified: >Originator: Archie Cobbs >Organization: Tribe Computer Works, Inc. >Release: FreeBSD 2.1-STABLE i386 >Environment: >Description: Using "pkg_manage" to add a package, you go through the menus to pick the directory and the package, then select it to add, press enter ("install marked"), and then it stops with an error ("do you want to see the output?" yes!): tar: can't open archive ./xcb-2.3.tgz: No such file or directory tar: child returned status 1 tar: +CONTENTS not found in archive Before running "pkg_manage" I entered the directory where the pacakges resided. >How-To-Repeat: cd /usr/local/packages pkg_manage Install Packages >Fix: pkg_add >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: From owner-freebsd-bugs Sat Nov 11 20:56:50 1995 Return-Path: owner-bugs Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) id UAA24078 for bugs-outgoing; Sat, 11 Nov 1995 20:56:50 -0800 Received: (from jkh@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.6.12/8.6.6) id UAA24054 ; Sat, 11 Nov 1995 20:56:46 -0800 Date: Sat, 11 Nov 1995 20:56:46 -0800 From: "Jordan K.

The pkg_manage utility itself still needs and overhaul and, for now, is superceeded by /stand/sysinstall.
